Notes for the Amendment Mini-Project

What is up, people:

Here are some good sites to find out information on the Amendments.

http://www.usconstitution.net/constkids4.html - Explains how the whole thing works.

http://www.usconstitution.net/constamnotes.html#Am13 - Gives you a history, and rundown of the amendments. It briefly discusses why each one is important. Scroll down the page for more information.

Tonight's HW 11/5/07

Due by Wednesday 11/7/07

Think of an amendment you'd like to see added to the US Constitution. In a post of no more than 100 words (but at least 50), explain:

1. What your proposed amendment is about.
2. Why your amendment should be added to the Constitution.

Here's a link to a list of amendments that have been proposed in recent years.

Thank you for hard work. Looking forward to your responses.
