Constitution Era

Constitutional Convention AKA Philadelphia Convention Shay’s Rebellion – uprising of overtaxed farmers in Massachusetts Raised awareness: Government realizes the Articles are too weak! Summer 1787 in Philadelphia Purpose: strengthen the federal government 55 delegates attended from 12 states (RI refused) George Washington was named President of the convention James Madison – “Father of the Constitution” Key writer, note-taker, and speaker Need a strong but limited federal government Shay’s Rebellion Video

Tuesday November 15th 2016. Pick up your spirals/folders, take out a pen/pencil and your bellwork. Bellwork Due/Quiz Friday: Constitutional Convention/Ratification Bellwork: What do you think? Monday 11/14: Do you think the Articles of Confederation were an effective government? Why/why not? Tuesday 11/15: What were the causes/effects of Shay’s Rebellion?

Great Compromise Issue: How should representation in Congress be determined? Groups: Big vs Small states

Virginia Plan New Jersey Plan Favored by large states Congress = 2 houses Senate House of Reps. Representation determined only by population Favored by small states Congress = 1 house Each state should have only one vote Like the Articles of Confederation Solution: Large states: House of Representatives based on population (more people more votes) Small states: Senate would have equal representation (2 per state) Video!

Answer these questions with your shoulder partner in your spiral. What roles did George Washington and James Madison play at the Philadelphia Convention? Why were large and small states arguing about representation in Congress? How was the disagreement between the New Jersey Plan and Virginia Plan resolved?

Three-Fifths Compromise Issue: Counting slaves toward state population Groups: Northern vs Southern states South: slaves should count for population, not taxes (more reps in Congress) North: slaves should count for taxes, not population Solution: 3/5 of the slave population would be counted No limiting slave trade until 1808
