Government...up close and personal!

I grew up in a suburb of Washington DC so I've had my fill of "government".  Except I realized that I never really studied it in school.  Of course, I had the chance to study it when my son was in high school, except I let him take the class as a dual enrolled student.  So, third time's the charm, right?

I just finished teaching a government class at our homeschool co-op when I saw the info for FPEA's Day at the Capitol on Friday January 12, 2012 .  What a great way to learn about government up close and personal!  Did you know that Florida's method of government is the same as our federal government?  And do you know what method of government that is?  (Hint: Democracy is the wrong answer).  Have you ever visited Tallahassee and been invited to meet with your lawmakers?  Now is your chance for all of those opportunities!  Don't miss out!

Feeling blessed, how about you?  (BTW, the correct answer is constitutional republic)
