Civics Definition Depot – Chapter 8

Directions: Based on the words provided for each chapter, complete your “Definition Depot” and keep a running log of all the Civics words and concepts for the year! Each definition should come from the textbook using the page provided or from online. Using a thesaurus, your brain, help from a parent identify at least one synonym (words that mean the same thing) for each term OR provide a colored illustration that shows that you understand the meaning of the term. Finally, write a sentence using the term that makes sense and demonstrates your understanding of the word.
