Grades 5-10 ---------------------------------- We the People: Story of Our Constitution America had won the Revolution, but our troubles were far from over. The thirteen states were squabbling, the country could not pay its bills, and in Massachusetts farmers had taken up arms against the government. Was our country, which had fought so hard for its independence, going to survive? In May 1787 delegates from across the country -- including George Washington, James Madison, and Benjamin Franklin -- gathered in Philadelphia and, meeting over the course of a sweltering summer, created a new framework for governing: the Constitution of the United States. Their efforts turned a shaky alliance of states into a nation that would prosper and grow powerful, drawing its strength for centuries to come from "We the people" and inspiring hope for freedom around the world. Grades 3-5 ---------------------------------- We the Kids: The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States A long time ago some smart guys wrote the Preamble to the Constitution. You have probably read it before, but do you know what it means? And did it ever make you laugh? Now it will! Perfect for inspiring discussion in classrooms and around kitchen tables, this fun-filled and cheerfully illustrated look at the Preamble provides an accessible introduction to America's founding ideals for citizens of allages. Grades K-3 ---------------------------------- Our Constitution Rocks Imagine a world without Twitter, Facebook, iTunes, or television… Little did the Framers of the United States Constitution know that their work would change the course of history, but that’s exactly what it did. The Constitution has been called miraculous, revolutionary, unprecedented, all that and more! With it, our Founding Fathers created a free nation, a country governed by the people in a way never seen before. Youth Advocate for Constituting America, Juliette Turner takes a unique look at our founding document and makes it relevant to kids today. Our Constitution Rocks is for a new generation, a reminder of what it means to have a voice and live free. So come along and discover America’s Constitution. Learn how those guys in wigs came up with some of the best ideas ever. It still matters to kids today. Find out why. Grades 7-10 ---------------------------------- Shh! We're Writing the Constitution by Jean Fritz Grade 2-5 An informative, interesting, and immensely readable account of the Constitutional Convention of 1787. Aimed at the same audience as Fritz' well-known series on Revolutionary heroes (Coward), this is every bit as good as those acclaimed titles, although younger children might need to have some terms clarified. Neatly woven into the discussion of what the framers were doing and how they did it are some wonderfully gossippy tidbits that are sure to catch young readers' imagination and make it all come alive for them. The text of the Constitution is included, as well as several pages of notes that expand upon some of the points that the main text touches upon. ---------------------------------- Constitution Quest Game Simple directions with added twists for fun, interesting, engaging game play. Play in less than an hour...the more you play, the more you learn! Includes a complimentary copy of the Constitution and Declaration of Independance.
