Framers Framers (architects) of the Constitution G. Washington elected president James Madison “Father of the Const”

The Ideas Virginia Plan (large state) 3 Branches of Gov Legislative: law making body, known as Congress Bicameral – # of representatives in each house would be based on state’s population

Executive Branch: enforces / executes / carries out laws President Judicial Branch: national court system that interprets laws Supreme Court

New Jersey Plan (small state) 3 Branches Legislative Branch: Unicameral Each state would receive equal number of representatives Executive Branch: More than one president

Judicial Branch: national court system

4 Corners Title each section on both sides: Articles of Confederation Virginia Plan New Jersey Plan Constitution On front – draw a picture to represent each

4 Corners On back – Describe the type of gov that this created OR wanted. Be sure to include (if applicable) Who has power – what branches? define roles of each branch how many representatives sent to Congress Was Congress unicameral or bicameral?

Attach to 4 Corners How did the Great Compromise satisfy both large and small states?
