The Three Branches of Government

You hear about laws and leaders, but this worksheet helps you understand how the government is organized. You explore the three branches of government and learn why power is divided instead of held by one group. Big ideas become easier when they are clearly explained.
 

You learn what each branch does and how their jobs are different. Short explanations help you understand who makes laws, who carries them out, and who checks if they are fair. This builds confidence as you read and understand civic ideas.
 

As you work through the worksheet, you strengthen your thinking and organization skills. You practice matching branches to responsibilities, remembering key facts, and organizing information clearly. Each activity helps you see how the branches connect.
