Seven Articles of the ConstitutionGraphic Organizer ActivityUsing a plain sheet of computer paper, fold the paper three times (hot dog, hamburger, and hamburger) so that you have eight boxes. In the first box, write “The Seven Articles of the Constitution”, your name and class period.Then, label each of the remaining boxes “Article I”, “Article II”, and so on. In each box, design a graphic that will help remind you of the purpose of each article (for example, the White House or President for Article II or a courtroom for Article III). Using the Constitution on pages 146-157 in your textbook (end of Chapter 5 – download from cumptonm.), write one statement that best summarizes each Article (for example, Article I: All legislative (law-making) powers are granted to Congress).There’s a helpful mnemonic we can use to remember the seven articles of the Constitution (shown below). A mnemonic is a device such as a pattern of letters, ideas, or associations that assists in remembering something.On the back of your completed graphic organizer, try to make up your own mnemonic to assist you in studying for your Unit 3 Test.Lazy (Legislative Branch)Elephants (Executive Branch)Jump (Judicial Branch)Rarely (Relations/Rights)And (Amendment Process)Sleep (Supremacy Clause)Regularly (Ratification) ................
