Updated videos soon, but the tested benchmarks for those of you taking the Florida Civics EOC in 2024.
This video teaches students the structure, functions, and processes of the Executive Branch of the United States Federal Government. Students will learn about the main job of the Executive Branch, headed up by the President of the United States, in enforcing or executing the law. Students will learn about the Constitutional Powers of the President, known as “expressed powers,” such as the veto, appointments of federal judges and Supreme Court Justices, nomination of department heads, making treaties with other countries, and heading the military. In addition to this role as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, students will learn the other “roles” of the President such as chief-of-state, chief diplomat, chief legislator, party chief, and chief economist. Students will be provided with examples from all of these presidential roles as well as expressed powers. The students will also be provided with examples of the various executive departments and agencies and the impact they have on the nation. Also included in this video is a section on Executive Orders with examples from some famous ones. Finally students will look at checks on presidential powers from Congress to help them understand the concept of checks and balances.
Like most of the videos on Mr. Raymond’s Civics EOC Academy this video ends with a review “quiz.” Remember that the PowerPoint in this video as well as a variety of lesson plans and activities are available at Teachers Pay Teachers.
Mr. Raymond’s Civics E.O.C. Academy was designed for students taking the Florida Civics End-of-Course (EOC) Exam. However, as many states are implementing Civics Exams, these videos will work for all students of Civics, US Government, and US History. Currently students have to pass a civics state exam in order to graduate in Idaho, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Arizona, North Dakota, Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Utah. These videos look at all of the civics benchmarks that will be tested on most state civics exams.
As a civics teacher I have often looked for civics RU-vid video clips to show my students. I hope these videos will serve as a supplement to lessons for civics teachers, US history teachers, US government teachers and their students. While they might be a little basic for AP Government students, they could serve as a refresher of basic concepts and content. I have also thought that these videos could help those who are going to take the naturalization test to become US Citizens. I have also been reached by parents whose children are taking Florida Virtual School’s (FLVS) Civics class.
