Constitution Day September 17th

 

I love these interactive google slides especially when they are paired with the paper pencil resource.
I like to use the slides for visuals and worksheets (idea organizers) for the whole group and then the class can break off and complete the paper pencil activity. 
They slides can also be used in a center or in the computer lab for enrichment.
The perfect team!!
Slide One:  What and when is constitution day.  Click and Drag ABC order with key vocabulary. Perfect way to embed vocabulary into the lesson so students get a better understanding of the theme.
Slide Two:  Why and who wrote the constitution?  Definition of constitution. Students count letters, syllables and use text to write a definition.
Slide Three:  Students (your class) creates their own classroom constitution.
Slide Four:  Bill of Rights...Informational Text.  Students share their opinion of what they should be free to do.
Slide Five:  Bill of Rights...What are they?  Students review the freedoms included.
Slide Six:  Traits of a Good Citizen.  Students Click and drag how they show respect, trustworthiness, kindness and more.
Slide Seven:  True/False Assessment and Let's Make Words from the letters in constitution.

Suggested literature.










So many amazing activities.
Word work, writing, informational text and activities all related to the constitution.
Many of the activities pair with the interactive google slides.





We've paired them up for the perfect team.
