The Constitution Readings & Checkpoints
Over the course of the unit, we will be going through different sections of the textbook in class. Whenever we start a reading, the questions will be due the next day and there will be a reading checkpoint made available after school for homework (unless there are other instructions). The Google Forms online correspond to a specific topic/lesson in the textbook.
Drafting a Constitution
The Constitutional Convention opened on May 25, 1787, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Its purpose was to revise the Articles of Confederation. Every state except Rhode Island sent representatives. All of them wanted to honor the legacy of the Revolution and the principles for which they had fought. Yet not all delegates would agree on how to achieve that goal.
