  16. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • Preamble to the United States Constitution •  We the People, of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

  17. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • This opening statement to the Constitution explains the reasons our Framers crafted our Republic form of government, to replace the Articles of Confederation.  The Constitution was drafted over a period of about six weeks, and then was eloquently phrased by the Committee – headed by Governor Morris of Pennsylvania.  The Preamble is the explanation, but it is not law.  The powers of each branch of the Federal government, and the states, are clearly detailed in Articles I – VII.

  18. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • We the People, of the United States • This means the citizens of the USA.  The new form of government may have been drawn up by some of the best- educated men of the new nation, but the rights of Republican government belonged to all.

  19. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • in Order to form a more perfect Union •  The Articles of Confederation had many limitations on governing the new nation.  In this phrase, the Framers were not stating they were crafting a government and nation that were without flaw; they meant that the new Constitution would produce and uphold a better form of governance than the Articles.

  20. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • establish Justice • The reasons for Revolution against England were still very much in the minds of American citizens.  Fair trade and fair trial were paramount.

  21. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • insure domestic Tranquility • Shays’ Rebellion – an uprising of Massachusetts farmers against the state for repayment of war debts- was one reason the Constitutional Convention was held.  Citizens were very concerned with the keeping of peace within our borders.

  22. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • provide for the common defense • The possibilities of attacks by other countries was very real.  No one state by itself had the military might to defend itself against a large-scale attack.  The Framers knew it was necessary for the states to work together to defend the nation.

  23. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • promote the general Welfare • This clause means the “well-being” of all.  It relates back to the previous three clauses:  by establishing justice, keeping the peace, and defending the nation, the citizens’ well-being would be taken care of to the best extent possible by a Federal government.

  24. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity • America had fought long and hard for liberty…freedom from a tyrannical government that imposed unjust laws, and placed the goals of the English Crown above the individual.  The purpose of the new Constitution was to protect and maintain those hard-won rights, for our Framers’ generation and all that followed.

  25. 7th Grade Social Studies Warm-up Mason Middle School Mr. Crake september 17thConstitution Day • do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America • This ending clause makes a powerful statement…We the People have made this governing document for Our nation, and it is We the People who give it the power.
