Students correct more government level errors and practice vocabulary about laws and leaders. Part A fixes three sentences mixing up the mayor and governor's responsibilities. Part B has four fill-in-the-blank questions about who leads the United States, what a law is, and what local government provides. Part C has three true-or-false statements about voting, the president's jurisdiction, and the purpose of laws.
Reinforcing that laws apply to everyone and that voting determines leaders builds essential civic literacy.
