Description

In this Government class activity your students will learn about the different Forms of Government and how they can be classified (direct/representative democracy, theocracy, oligarchy, monarchy, parliamentary, presidential etc.) by using EIGHT real world government examples. For example, students will examine how a real world monarchy, like the one used in Saudi Arabia, affects life in Saudi Arabia.

 The overall essential question is: What is it really like to live in countries with different forms of government? This lesson includes a 4 (Full Color) slide power-point presentation, student worksheets/graphic organizers, readings/articles links, and links to public access internet videos.
