Branches of the Military Cut and Paste
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Branches of the Military Cut and Paste" is written for 3rd Grade (Ages 8-9). If your little one is a year younger but already steady on Government, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and branches of the military never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

Can I use this branches of the military worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade Government, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with branches of the military. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
