Our Classroom Constitution...

Today we read our Weekly Reader about the constitution. We learned that the constitution was written by our country's leaders and presidents. We learned that the constitution is a list of laws, or rules, and then we talked about how we follow certain laws, or rules when we are in school.

After reading we got ready to make our own constitution!
On our constitution we wrote our "Cougar Code", which is be respectful, be responsible, and be safe. We also wrote a few of our most important class rules.
Next, we crumpled the papers up to make them look old, handled, and weathered.
Finally, we unfolded our constitutions and dipped them in coffee to make them look REALLY old. Everyone loved this part!
A sample of the finished product:
