As your students search for words, you can share some fun facts about the Constitution of the United States. Here are a few of my favorites:

• The Constitution of the United States was written in 1788.
• September 17th is Constitution Day.
• You can see the original Constitution at the National Archives in Washington, DC.
• The Constitution can be changed. It currently has 27 amendments.

Alternatively, you could introduce vocabulary words with posters and word wall cards. Explaining, practicing, and reviewing key vocabulary words is super important with a topic, like the Constitution, that can be abstract and complex for little learners. Visual cues like a word wall can support your students throughout the unit.
