The Constitution introduces students to the Preamble, the Articles of the Constitution, and the Amendments that followed. The activities will help students explore why the Constitution was needed in the first place and what arguments and compromises were made in order to make it happen. Students will meet the signers of the document and learn about the process they went through to draft the final version. Activites include games, interpreting political cartoons, vocabulary, constructing a time line and government tree.
