The US Constitution Day, Week, or Lesson Activities & Craft: 2nd, 3rd, 4th Grade

Description

“

Whether you’re teaching a unit on the US Constitution or celebrating Constitution Day, these kid-friendly activities are a great way to introduce your students to the United States Constitution.

They’ll learn about the 3 branches of government, the Constitutional Convention, the Bill of Rights, and more through reading passages, coloring pages, a craft, etc.!
