Draw a diagram of the city government. Label each office and describe it's duties. Discuss ideas for improvement and how are new laws made.

Discuss the rights and responsibilities of an invididual in his/her community, stae and country. Have your child write a statement of commitment for being a responsible citizen in the community. Have your child write a thank you note to the community leader.

Compare and contrast your city government to the state government.

Make a poster about your state's capital. Write the name of the capital in outlined letters and fill in the letters with words and pictures.

Here are some lesson plan ideas:
