Bill of Rights Collage Project

Work in a group of 3-4 students to create a collage on one of the first ten amendments to the Constitution. Use clippings from magazines or clip art from the computer that illustrate the meaning of your amendment. Glue your pictures on a poster so your collage is visually appealing and there is little blank white space in the background. Make sure you have a title with the name of your amendment. You may want to have a subtitle that summarizes the main meaning of your amendment. On the back have the actual words of the amendment typed out, a summary of what the amendment means in your own words, and the names of everyone in your group. Teach the class the meaning of your amendment using your collage as a visual aide. Your Task…
