The Bill of Rights Unit (and a Little About Amendments 11-27)
Social Studies, Government, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools
The purpose of this 49-page mini-unit is for students in grades 6-12 to develop a clear understanding of what their rights are under the Constitution, particularly our rights under the Bill of Rights. Increasingly, Americans, especially students, are not able to name many of the rights we are entitled to in the Bill of Rights. They are well aware of Amendment 2 and parts of Amendment 1, and the “I plead the fifth” clause of Amendment 5, but they are woefully uninformed of the other rights that protect us. This mini-unit is designed to give students not only a complete understanding of these rights but opportunities to put their knowledge into practice through the various worksheets and a culminating project at the end of the unit, which is available separately in my store,, “A Great Good Place for Teachers,” called The Bill of Rights: A Project to Assess Knowledge and Understanding. The ultimate goal is for them to have a healthy and complete understanding of why these basic rights are so necessary for our democracy. This mini-unit is part of my unit: “Our Living Consitution” which is designed using the Into, Through, and Beyond model of lesson planning. The lessons in the Our Living Constitution unit can be used independently or as a supplement to what you already teach or as a whole. Here is a summary of what is in the unit. Check out my store: A Great Good Place for Teachers Here are the links Into Lessons: Creating Schema Lesson 1: Overview of the Constitution of the United States of America Lesson 2: Origins of the Constitution and Essential Terms Lesson 3: The Seven Principles of the Constitution Through Lessons: Learning the Content Lesson 4: The Preamble: The Goals of the Constitution (not included in Our Living Constitution) Lesson 5: The Three Branches of Government: Articles 1, 2, and 3 Lesson 6: How a Bill Becomes a Law Lesson 7: Federalism, Separation of Powers, and Checks and Balances Lesson 8: Articles 4, 5, 6, and 7 of the United States Constitution Lesson 9: The Bill of Rights Unit (and a Little About Amendments 11-27) Extras (from the Unit: Every Four Years… The Presidential Election) Lesson 10: What Are Your Political Viewpoints ?
