Build Background
• Why do you think the United States
Constitution requires that the president has
to be at least thirty-five years old? Who
decided this?
• What do you already know about the U.S.
Constitution? What is it? Who created it?
When was it created? What is its function?
Background Information
• We the People of the
United States, in Order to
form a more perfect Union,
establish Justice, insure
domestic Tranquility,
provide for the common
defense, promote the
general Welfare, and secure
the Blessings of Liberty to
ourselves and our Posterity,
do ordain and establish this
Constitution for the United
States of America.
Building Background
• The Preamble comes before the main body of the Constitution, and
it explains why the Constitution was created.
• The adoption of the Constitution was achieved only after fierce
debates in many states. This was because many Americans were
wary of a central government with a lot of power, because they had
recently achieved independence from a monarch who had had too
much power over them.

Objectives
day 1
Students will
• learn how to use pronouns to replace nouns.
• Learn about apostrophes in the possessive
case of nouns
• Learn how to use time lines
• Explore ways to listen and respond to oral
presentations.
Grammar, Usage, and Mechanics
If you have a U.S. dollar, you can spend
it in any state.
It is a personal pronoun.
A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun.
Personal pronouns replace a subject, an object, or a possessive noun in a
sentence.
Pronouns should agree in number. For example, a plural pronoun replaces a
plural noun, and a singular pronoun replaces a singular noun. Pronouns
should also agree in gender. Possessive pronouns can be singular or
plural.
Write a couple of sentences using personal pronouns then have your partner
identify the pronouns.
