Today in class, I worked on catching up with the HUGE piles of papers that have gathered on my desk, while you cherubs worked on a reading assignment that introduced some concepts about government. Remember, as soon as the colonies declared their independence, the individual colonies became states, and those states needed a way to run themselves. Without a mother country to run them, they needed to make their own rules and set up their own governing systems. Each state drew up a blueprint we call a "constitution". Our national constitution eventually would take many ideas from these state constitutions and include them. In class, you read from the We The People textbook and answered questions about the ideas included in the state constitutions.
