James McHenry.......**BIOGRAPHICAL!!!!!!!**

__0:00-0:15__ Say hello and make small talk about things going on in the person's life. List four things you could talk about with your person.

1) Hey Mr. James McHenry, its Tonks I hear that you grew up in Irealnd, thats pretty cool. Im very Irish myself.

2) I bet you were honored when George Washington asked you to be a member of his personal staff.

3) I hope your three kids are doing fine, prolly excited that Thanksgiving is tomaro.

4) Its pretty exciting to hear that your nephew, Francis Scott Key, wrote the "Star-Spangled Banner, our National Anthem."

=**0:15-0:30**=

State why you are calling and the Article and section, or the Amendment you want to discuss.

Why calling?, Explain Amendment in every day terms.

1) I am calling you because I thought we should talk how the Constitution changed our lives.

2) The Amendment that probably changed our lives the most, in my opinion, is the First Amendment.

1) The first Amendment states "Freedom of Religion, Press, and Speech."

2)This means that in our everday lives, we can have the privledge to practice whatever religion we want, and we, as citizens can express ourselves freely by saying what we want and no one can tell us how or not to say it.

=**0:30-0:45**=

Give an example of how we see that Article or Amendment in action today and if it is still working to benefit us?

1Who- This Amendment applies to everyone, because, as Americans, we have the freedom that so many others crave for.

2What

3When- The first Amendment was added to the Bill Of Rights in 1791.

4Where- All over the country.

5Why

6How

7Keep it? Change it? Why?I hope we keep this Amendment because wihtout it, our country would fall apart. Even though we have the freedom of religion, speech, and press, we are also limited on what things we can say. For the most part, we live our lives freely, but wihtout this amendment, people would not be able to express themselves or say what they have ot say. If you dont say anything people wont hear you, and this could cause serious problems.

=**0:45-1:00**=

Be creative!!- Talk more about the constitution, small talk, and say good bye!
