Unit 4 Principles of Government Vocabulary 4 Square
Using the 7 principles of government vocabulary terms listed below, you will create a vocabulary 4 square term.
Each 4 square will include the definition for the term, a definition rewritten in your own words, an illustration of the
term and a sentence using the term that demonstrates your understanding of the definition. Definitions and sentences should be in complete sentences and every effort should be made to include proper grammar and spelling. Illustrations should demonstrate meaning, show effort and creativity, and be colored, though your ability as an artist is
not what is being graded. Each term should be printed clearly in the hexagon in the middle of the 4 squares for each
item. The terms to include in the activity are:
