I will have the traditional materials for the students to use such as paper, markers, etc. I also want to incorporate computer software into the lesson. The planning time for this lesson was approximately three to four days and if needed can be either shortened or lengthened. The second point of entry is the topic, which means I will be thinking about the subject matter. The United States Constitution is new to many students.
Most elementary students have no previous knowledge about the constitution.
This is not going to be an easy unit for many of the students. Learning the Constitution in high school was a difficult subject and now in elementary school it is just as difficult. This may also be a boring subject for most students. I will do my best to make it creative and fun for the students. I believe that the Constitution is important for students to know because they can learn how important it is to live in a free country.
