Executive Branch The president is the leader and he serves for two terms for a total of eight years. The president is in charge of the military and signs bills. The building the president works in is the White House where he lives.
Legislative Branch The senators serve for six year terms and the representatives serve for two year terms. Members of Congress make laws for the United States. The building where the Senate and The House of Representatives are is the Capitol Building.
Washington D.C. The president lives in Washington D.C. Washington D.C. is important because it is our state capital.Washington D.C. is named after George Washington. Washington D.C. seems a really fun place to visit.
Checks and Balances Checks and balances are important because it is what makes our country fair. The U.S.A. used to be ruled by the king of England and a war started. America won the war. The founders of the United States didn't want any one branch to have to much power. Checks and balances are very important to our country.
