Terms – Unit 4: The Executive Branch

Make a flash card for each term. The term must be on one side and a full identification on the other. All must be handwritten . Please number each card and put in order before handing in. After these terms are handed back, put them somewhere safe and remember where you put them!!! They will be recollected at the end of April when you will take a comprehensive “Terms Test” on terms from every unit we study in the course. Complete definitions on flashcards:
