Learn how amendments have been made throughout the years, how the branches of government work, and what responsibility they play in upholding America’s most important document; the Constitution. This book will allow students to describe the overall structure (e.g., chronology, comparison, cause/effect, problem/solution) of events, ideas, concepts, or information in a text.
