Lesson Topic
Other Notable Amendments & the Process of Amending the Constitution
Lesson Outline
Today there are 27 Amendments in the U.S. Constitution. We looked at some more notable ones beyond the first ten. We also looked at the process of amending the Constitution. Article V explains how to amend the Constitution: The first step to amend the Constitution is the proposal. An amendment must be proposed and voted on by two-thirds of both houses of the U.S. Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) or two-thirds of the states may call a constitutional convention to propose amendments. Every amendment has been proposed by Congress.
Once the amendment is proposed, it must be ratified by three-fourths of the states, either in their legislatures or by specifically called ratification conventions.

Lesson Comments
This was moved from earlier in the week as Bella left school before both U.S. History and English (for which I was subbing) on Tues., 9/6. School was notified at the beginning of 4th period that Bella would not be here or online because she had a headache on Wed., 9/7 - so lessons for 9/7 & 9/8 were bumped to later in the week.
