Celebrate Freedom Week Announcement
Formulation of the US Constitution
What is as strong as an oak tree but can bend like a rubber band? The answer is the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution is a strong document, more powerful than any branch of government or any state. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow for freedom and changes in America. The Constitution of the United States is the cornerstone of our American government. In 4,543 words this document describes the structure or plan of the government and the rights of the American people. The Constitution is organized into three parts. It begins with the Preamble, which describes the purpose of the document and the government. Next are seven Articles. These articles establish how the government is structured and how the Constitution can be changed. Last, are the changes to the Constitution, which are called amendments. The first ten are called the Bill of Rights and as of today there are 17 more additional amendments. These amendments make the Constitution a "living document" because it can be amended or changed. So as an oak tree grows, provides shade, and sways in the wind, the U.S. Constitution grows, changes, protects, and guides us. Celebrate Freedom Week!
