Constitution Day Lesson & Resources


I just presented a lesson for Constitution Day yesterday and thought I'd share here too. The lesson meets the Constitution Day federal requirement and integrates Common Core State Standards as well. Feel free to download and modify to your needs or send your students here.

Here's what you will find:
Two Prezis (PPT updated for the 21st century) that I used to show teachers and one for use in the classroom. The Prezi is open, so that you may copy and modify it to meet your needs.

Prezi Basics handouts. There are two options: a double sided pamphlet and a five page document that I encountered online. You may wish to print the pamphlet out for the students and link the 5 pager online for students to refer to.

Prezi storyboard word document. This has a text option if you want to create your own or have the studnets create one.

Zipped folder image resources. There are multiple folders with a variety of images for you to use and/or share with your students. I've found having a collection of images ready for the students saves time when we are in a computer lab time crunch.

Four possible options for student extension activities

Resource links for student extension activities. The Interactive COnstitution fron the National Constitution Center is great.
