Jot down you notes for each section below.

=__**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, Rufus King this is Kelly? Your looking good for being born in 1775.

2 I always wanted to be the oldest #|child like you were in your #|family, that must have been soooo cool, rather than beings tuck in the middle like I am.

3 Your dad is a really good #|farmer #|merchant i see him all the #|time and you must help a lot too. Just to let you know massachusetts looks a lot different now then when you lived there after being born.

4 You were 12 when you finished your #|elementary education and i lthink that was funny because i was 10 when i graduated mine. well, enough small talk, lets get to why I called. =**__0:15-0:30__**=

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

1 I am here to talk about the #|first amendment

2 The #|first amendment states //Congress shall make no #|law respecting an establishment of religion,// //3//

explain what it is in everyday language

1 This Amendment allows the citizens of the #|united states choose to practice any religion they would like or they can choose not even to practice a religion.

2 This means that we can have our freedom of speech and say what we would like about something.

3 This allows citizens to have their own opinion on things and decide for themselves rather than having the government chose for them. =__**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 is still benifitting everyone today.

2What-

3When This amendmaent was added to the bill of rights in 1791

4Where - It is used all over the country.

5Why

6How

7Keep it? Change it? Why? I think that we should definatley keep this amendment. With out this our country would be in a fight. There are so many people in the country that people don't believe in the same things. This amendment allows jewish people to be jewish and cathlic people to be catholic, live right next to eachother and be happy for what they believe in. There are a lot more religions today too. Why should all the poeple in the united states practice something they don't believe in. Without this, our country would be a mess,

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

So, rufus king, thats all I had to say about the first amendmeant and the constitution. I can't believe how much you and all those other men helped and changed our lives today. You guys are really good thinkers. There are millions of people in the united states and you allowed them to do what they would like. YOU ROCK, have fun in your grave down there and say hi to your buds. Peace out.
