I bought this for one my eighth graders to help her better understand the US Government and this was just a bit confusing for her. I should have broken it down to explain "movie" versus "after project".

This is great! The students understand texting language and will be sure to remember the Preamble this way. Thanks!

So glad to see someone has addressed "why" it's important to remember this. My students have difficulty understanding why they should care about something that happened long ago to people they don't know. This helps.
