Illustrating the Amendments



Illustrating the Amendments

Read the amendments to the U.S. Constitution on pages 72 – 81 in your textbook. Then paraphrase, or put in your own words, each amendment. It is important that you DO NOT COPY the amendments from the textbook or from the internet. You may also use your notes from class.

Write no more than 2 paraphrased amendments per separate sheet of paper. Do not put amendments on the back of the paper.

Then illustrate the amendment’s meaning below the text. Some Amendments have multiple meanings so you can just focus on one of them for this project. You may use images from old magazines and newspapers or draw your own images. Include a creative cover sheet for the project. Your summaries must be typed and pictures in color. If not in YOUR own words it will not be graded!!

The cover should have your name, period, and title of the project. See the example below, which illustrates one part of the First Amendment.

This assignment is due Tuesday October 10th 2017. It will all be done outside of class.
