Description

This short reading and chart on the First Amendment are perfect to teach students about the five individual freedoms stated within this amendment. The reading breaks down the First Amendment and discusses:

  • Freedom of Religion
  • Freedom of Assembly
  • Freedom of Press
  • Freedom of Petition
  • Freedom of Speech

After, students will use the acronym RAPPS to identify each freedom within the First Amendment and explain how this amendment protects our individual freedoms. The acronym RAPPS is a great tool to help students remember religion, assembly, press, petition, and speech. I hear my students refer to RAPPS all year!

FREE First Amendment Quiz (a great activity to begin discussing this amendment)!

This was used as an introductory activity for the Bill of Rights particularly the First Amendment. I found it very helpful to begin this topic.

Some of the language was a bit over my 4th graders head but for the most part it was a good resource.
