Writing Assignment:
*A writing assignment will be assigned on July 15th. The paper will be due August 10th. If you are late with the assignment you will be penalized.
You will write about one Amendment of the Constitution.
If the amendment has more than one part, such as the 1st amendment, you will pick one portion of the amendment and write about that. For example , if you use the 1st amendment, you can only write about freedom of religion, or freedom of the press or freedom of speech, or the right to assembly.
You can pick any of the amendments, but only write about one amendment and one part if it has multiple parts. I want you to dig deep about the part you choose.
The amendments are listed in your book on page A21 (in the appendix)
