Today we spent about half our time going finishing up Quarter One business: reviewing the Q1 benchmark exam and giving an opportunity for extra credit for those students who memorized the Preamble to the Constitution.
The second half of our class, we took more time to examine the separation of powers between the national and the state governments. This separation is called THE FEDERAL SYSTEM or simply FEDERALISM. Some government powers are reserved exclusively for the national government, some are reserved for the states, and some are shared between the state and national governments.
