It gives them a great overview of the Constitution and puts it in a way they can understand. I use this every year with my class. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Elizabeth C: This resource made studying the Constitution so much fun! My class was a combined classroom of 4th graders and 5th graders. While 4th graders were learning state history and had very specific lessons that needed my oversight, I was able to use these projects for my 5th graders. They learned about the history topics in more of an independent study style! These resources were a major timesaver for me! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Stephen E: My students had a great time with this activity! It took multiple days to complete, and they were disappointed on the days that we weren't able to work on it. They all demonstrated a increased understanding of the Constitution, and because since it was the beginning of a new school year, the activity helped the students to get to know each other better as well.

The purpose of the 21-page mini-unit, "The Preamble: The Goals of the Constitution," is to help students in grades 5-8 understand the importance of The Preamble to the United States Constitution and its significance today. This mini-unit is part of my unit on the Constitution: The Constitution is a Living Document. This mini-unit is divided into 3 parts: Into, Through, and Beyond. Part 1: Into provides students with the background they need to understand the Preamble, including a reading on the Preamble and vocabulary development. Part 2: Through provides students with opportunities to paraphrase the Preamble and to critically apply the Preamble to our society today. Part 3: Beyond offers students an opportunity to synthesize all their learning in a slideshow or Prezi project. This is a summative assessment. All of the work that they do in Parts 1 and 2 will be used for the project in Part 3: Beyond.The mini-unit generally takes between 4 and 5 days not counting the project. The mini-unit comes with detailed lesson plans for each part, objectives, and learning targets that are aligned with the Common Core Standards and the California State History Standards, student handouts and worksheets, former student examples, and a rubric for the project.
