Reflection

This project was fine. I had a little help with this project. It had a hard time with the poem. I like what they did with the country back then. I did the research with mostly books. I learned that the Constitution had more than thirteen members from the thirteen colonies but fifty seven members in the Constitution. I started the project with an essay. I didn't use the internet for information but for images.

Maps in 18th century



This is the map of the 13 colonies who ratify the Constitution. The Constitution was voted by the delegates in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Then it was ratified by the 11 states. The Constitution is made out of three parts called the Preamble, the seven articles and the amendments.

The Constitution

The U.S. Constitution was ratify by the original 11 colonies.
Because of that reason, we are gratify with the outcome.

The Constitution protects the rights and freedom of its people.
It also provides separation of powers for checks and balances.

It continues to remain flexible and strong.
It continues to grow and last long.
