Constitution Day 2011









Constitution Day commemorates the formation and signing of the U.S. Constitution by thirty-nine brave men on September 17, 1787, recognizing all who, are born in the U.S.or by naturalization, have become citizens!



Do you know that many US citizens have never read any part of our Constitution.


So, let's start small: Here is the preamble to our Constitution. Read it!



We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

What are YOU doing?


  • Today, you are going to encourage the students and staff @ Hanover to READ and be familiar with some aspect of our US Constitution.


  • You must have an part of an excerpt and a cool fact from the Constitution included on your visual.


What type of visual you choose and how you will do this will be up to you. We will display them throughout the campus.



Be creative! Due Monday 9/19.



Don't feel limited to web 2.0 tools, but here are some that I dig!
