Summary (Organizer) on the Seven Articles of the Constitution UPDATED
UPDATED WITH KEY. This activity is a graphic organizer for each of the seven articles of the Constitution. It is not especially detailed being one sheet, but it does contain what I feel are the condensed, key parts of each Article- such as major powers and topics. I use it as a review study guide activity or an introduction. Students use a Constitution, either online or in their textbook to fill out the missing parts. It took my students about 30-40 minutes and provided a nice visual for them to

Learn it. Remember it. Live it. Right. Wrong. Consequences. Values that make the difference are found in Janis Silverman's second book "Advanced" Fairy Tales. Some of the tales are less familiar; some are more complicated and take a more mature student to untangle the possible misbehaviors to be charged. But the teacher-tested results speak for themselves . . .
