15.3 27 Amendments Matching Game

Share

This activity is part of Module 15: Article V and the 27 Amendments from the Constitution 101 Curriculum. 


Throughout American history, “We the People” have amended our Constitution 27 times—transforming it in important ways. Through the Article V amendment process, we often make it a “more perfect” document. In this activity, you will learn more about key periods of constitutional change and explore the 27 amendments to the Constitution.


How well do you remember the 27 amendments? Write the big ideas of each amendment on the corresponding blank cards (attached), then cut out the cards, shuffle them, and play a matching game.
