    Ben's guide is a gov doc that teaches about the US government. I accessed the section for 3-5 grades. This included information about historical documents, branches of the government and the election process. There is a glossary of terms and a list of other government websites. It is "narrated" by Ben Franklin

    This site explains to kids how our government operates on their own level. The branches of government are explained, website links are included and there are games that can be played. There are great lessons that can be used for every grade.

    Colorfully animated character of Benjamin Franklin. Follow Ben as he explains many aspects of American government. Explore through all grade levels. Text rich information with animation, games and activities. Fifth graders in Lincoln learn about the American government so this would be a great, fun site to utilize in teaching this information.

    This is a wonderful site to use with Character Counts. One of the pillars is citizenship and there is a page devoted to citizenship. Fifth grade is all about the U.S. and so if you need example and a site that is kid friendly, this is it.

    Great site for all ages. This site gives great information on all aspects of our government. Kids love this site because of the animation and colorful appearance. The vocabulary is geared towards kids so that all information is easily understood.

    This is an amazing site, fun for kids and perfect for all grades. As a 3rd grade teacher, I found many items on the 3-5 grade level applicable to my SS program. For example, Citizenship, Your Neighborhood and Beyond, and How Laws are Made all match my curriculum and clarify these complicated processes into simple terms. I know my kids would love to match the states game under Interactive Games.

    This is a good site for information on the Federal government, and it is broken down by age levels. There are games and activities for each age level. There are also links at each age level to different government sites.

    This government website has an enormous amount of information about the history of the White House and the presidents. There are also pages about the administration, issues and photos/videos. I like the briefing room page with the latest news and current events. Students will like the first pets photo gallery.

    Labeled "Facts and Fun for all Ages." Photos and basic information about the White House, the presidents, presidential pets and fun historical facts. Main focuses: presidents and White House. Visually pleasing, easy-to-use.

    This site provides information about the various branches of the U.S. government, all of the U.S. presidents, the current administration, current issues, and the White House itself. It would be a good resource for social studies or history students
