Constitute Lesson Plans
Constitute lesson plans to help bring the world’s constitutions into classrooms, Grades 5 and up, as a way to empower students as citizens.
Bringing the World’s Constitutions to the Classroom
The first four lessons engage students in exploring world constitutions, drafting a 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, digging deeper into a particular constitutional topic, and drafting a unique constitutional preamble.
Constitute in International Baccalaureate History Class
A fifth lesson plan uses Constitute as a research tool for International Baccalaureate (IB) Curriculum’s World History diploma paper on Evolution and Development of Democratic states.
We gratefully acknowledge the hard work and invaluable contributions of JoEllen Ambrose in developing these teaching guides in partnership with the CCP and the American Bar Association Division for Public Education.
