Mrs. Podoll's Class Dives into the Constitution! 🇺🇸
Today, Mrs. Podoll's students worked on a variety of activities for Constitution Day, starting with The Story Behind the Constitution and comprehension questions. They read the Constitution, tackled true/false questions, wrote essays on what the Constitution means to them, and even completed a word search of the 39 signers.
When I visited, I was impressed to see students sharing amendments they were already familiar with. Amazing work, 5th graders! 👏📜

Happy Constitution Day from our 4th Graders! 🇺🇸
Today, our fourth-grade classes came together to read "We the Kids" by David Catrow, followed by a fun activity where they worked together to assemble the Preamble of the Constitution from a scramble. Teamwork and learning in action as they build a deeper understanding of the foundation of our country! 📚🇺🇸

Ms. Plumb's first grade class made their own hats and constitution books.
Happy Constitution Day! Over 200 hands make up our student "We the People" flag. Mrs. Ryder spent all day working on this amazing flag with all of the students.
Our other amazing kindergarten class signing their very own constitution and making adorable themed hats.
The kindergarten classes also learned about the constitution! They made their own and even made adorable little hats!
Mrs. Cody's 3rd grade class used age appropriate videos to learn about the Constitution and the Preamble (PBS Kids, School House Rocks, Liberty Kids, and the Constitution for kids). They read We the Kids, by David Catrow. Then, they pretended to be a writer of the Preamble and wrote it in their best handwriting. They learned the importance of writing nicely, or no one would have been able to read the original Preamble and Constitution.
Happy Constitution Day from Linden Elementary! 🇺🇸
Today, our amazing teachers have planned fun and engaging activities to help our students learn about the U.S. Constitution and what it means to be a good citizen. We’ll be celebrating throughout the day with exciting lessons, and we’ll be sharing pictures of these activities right here!
Be sure to check back and see how our students are honoring this important day. We’re proud to celebrate Constitution Day with our Linden community! 📚🎉
