The President: Executive Command Game | Used with iCivics

What does the President do during a day, week or even a month in office? This game has proven to be an excellent way for students to learn and comprehend all the "hats" or roles that the President plays during his time in office. From talking to congress, vetoing bills, visiting various departments, and traveling to foreign countries, students will take the role of President and do their best to become a successful President of the United States.

This worksheet is an excellent written companion to go along with the FREE game created by iCivics.com. As students play the FREE online game Executive Command, students will also complete this series of 6 reflection questions. Just playing the game in itself is fun, but having this assessment is great for the teacher and student to reflect on what has been learned. My students love this game an have told me that they play it at home as well. Playing this "Executive Command" game is an excellent hands-on activity to add to your Presidential or Executive Branch unit within your civics or government classes. Hail to the Chief!
