The U.S. Constitution comprises the primary law of the U.S. Federal Government. It describes the three chief branches of the Federal Government and their jurisdictions, and lays out the basic rights of citizens of the United States. The U.S. Constitution is the oldest Federal constitution in existence and was framed by a convention of delegates from twelve of the thirteen original states in Philadelphia in May 1787, Rhode Island failing to send a delegate. The U.S. Constitution is the landmark legal document of the United States.

Why Our Constitution Matters 1:21

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_nAjXQ0bWk Sep 23, 2019 “We the People of the United States.” Those seven words have been ringing for all to hear since 1787. They serve as the opening lines to our Constitution – the world’s oldest national constitution in continual use. Some say it's archaic and needs doing away with – but they couldn’t be more wrong. Here’s why. https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/constitution-day-teachable-moment-kay-coles-james The Heritage Foundation

We the People: Honoring Constitution Day 1:12

Constitution and Citizenship Day 2019: Judges, Baseball Fans Welcome Newest Americans 4:39

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpdfML6RFlg Sep 16, 2019 “Congratulations, you are all United States citizens.” With these simple words, a federal judge welcomed new citizens as part of a series of naturalization ceremonies held in recent weeks at professional baseball stadiums across the country. This video captures the momentous occasions with interviews of new citizens about what it means to be an American. “This is my home, and it feels good to say I belong here, that I am a citizen,” said one woman who had just taken the Oath of Allegiance. Since 2015, the federal Judiciary has celebrated the weeks surrounding Constitution Day and Citizenship Day by hosting naturalizations in distinctive settings. This year, federal judges are naturalizing more than 700 citizens at 11 major and minor league ballparks. On Sunday, at the Philadelphia Phillies stadium—just a short distance from where the Constitutional Convention drafted the nation’s founding document—Chief Judge Juan R. Sánchez swore in 15 new citizens at a game attended by more than 39,000 people. Among the candidates was Saurav Upadhyay, 32, a Nepalese immigrant. He lived on just $20 a week when he came to America to go to college. “It was a lot of rice and, sometimes, some soy sauce,” he said. He now does international work for the Society of Friends in Pennsylvania. The video highlights ceremonies at the home fields of the Auburn (New York) Doubledays, Hartford (Connecticut) Yard Goats, Dayton (Ohio) Dragons, and Oklahoma City Dodgers. The immense joy of the newly minted citizens was shared by baseball fans and presiding judges alike. Magistrate Judge Michael Newman, who administered the Oath of Allegiance in Dayton, said a standing ovation from fans was “a recognition of what an important event this is.” Newman added, “It’s exciting to me because, what’s more American than baseball?” Constitution Day and Citizenship Day are officially observed on Sept. 17, the date in 1787 that delegates signed the U.S. Constitution.

While Thomas Jefferson had written, “we hold these truths to be sacred and undeniable,” Franklin made an extraordinary change to the statement. He wrote “we hold these truths to be self-evident.” https://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/subjects/social-studies PBS Learning Media for California Educators
