Constitution Journal
This week complete pages 3 & 4 of your constitution journal. Remember you don’t have to rewrite it word for word. Say it in your own words!
Here are links to help:
Shmoop link here is helpful.
Here is a document that has the constitution simplified.
Here is another document you can look at to help you.
Here is a website that I like to use.
You can also google words too!
Also, in your journal I use the word paragraph to break up the constitution for you, but the correct word is clause. So if you read online the word clause it is another word for paragraph.
Opinion Paper
This week’s opinion paper topic is:
Describe a time in your life that was really hard. Maybe something scary was happening or maybe you weren’t sure what was going to happen. Or maybe something sad happened or you saw someone being sad. Did you want to give up? What did you decide to do? Thinking about that experience what would you tell yourself in that moment to motivate yourself to keep going. What did you learn from that experience?
