Greetings! We hope you had a great Labor Day weekend!
We'll start today with a creative writing exercise looking at the Preamble to the Constitution. We'll start by asking you to imagine creating a new government - what would you want to make sure that government did? What would you want to be sure it did not do? We'll then take a closer look at the Preamble to determine if those goals match up with yours.
Next, we'll introduce the United States' first attempt to create a government using the Articles of Confederation. John Green's Crash Course in U.S. History will give us a brief look.
Then we will turn our attention to Article 1 and the worksheets you completed. Be sure to ask any questions you have!
The last half hour will be dedicated to completing the posters we started last Friday.
Tonight you will be completing the worksheet for Article 1.
