Constitution+Day+2

media type="custom" key="1989198" The United States Constitution is the set of laws that we follow in our country. The first 10 changes or additions(Amendments) that were made to it are nicknamed the Bill of Rights. This week we will be examining the Bill of Rights.

__//**Tuesday-**//__
We will review the Bill of Rights and you will come up with an example of how people exercise these rights today for Amendments 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8. Tomorrow when you come in you will share with the class your examples.

__//**Wednesday-Thursday**//__
Today you are going to create a powerpoint with your partner on Amendments 1(3), 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8. It will be almost just like what we did yesterday in class.


 * 1) Open powerpoint
 * 2) Where it says "Click to add" -- type in the number of the Amendment you are working on and what right it gives people living in the United States (amendment #1 will have at least three slides).
 * 3) Go to [|Flickr] and find an image that would help you remember what right is protected by that amendment. Click on the image, then on the larger image right click and copy.
 * 4) Go back to the powerpoint slide and paste it
 * 5) Go back to flickr and copy the web address, then go back to the slide and paste it onto the image
 * 6) Someone else should be able to watch your powerpoint and be able to guess what Amendment each image represents.

The Amendments

=__//**Friday**//__= When you are done with your powerpoint, place it on your wiki page. On your "All my work" link make a new page called Bill of Rights in ImagesPB09 (your initials not mine!). Place the code for your slide show on that page. When you are done with that visit some blogs from around the world and leave comments or add a new post to yours!  media type="custom" key="1997628"
