The Constitution Community

A new addition to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Digital Classroom site (see the November 18, 199 Scout Report for Social Sciences), the Constitution Community is a partnership between classroom teachers and education specialists from the NARA. Like other Digital Classroom projects, the Constitution Community offers sample lesson plans, correlated to the National History Standards, that make use of original documents and images from American history. In addition to the lesson plan, each also includes background information, a number of suggested teaching activities, and its connection to the US Constitution The lessons are grouped by eight historical eras, covering the American Revolution to the Great Depression to the Civil Rights Act. Highlights include The Growth of Regionalism, The Civil War as Photographed by Mathew Brady, FDR's First Inaugural Address: Declaring "War" on the Great Depression, and the Founding Documents of the Peace Corps.
