Directions: Re-read the Preamble to the Constitution. You may also read the “translated” version of the Preamble below. After you read them. Take a few minutes to think. In your opinion what word or phrase is the most important in the Preamble.Then explain why in 2-3 sentences. We will share Friday in S.S. class.
I have attached the link to the Schoolhouse Rock video we watched in class on the Preamble to help you.http://www.schooltube.com/video/03f9c858260a4da9b582/School-House-Rock-The-Preamble
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, 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.”
Translated version: “We the Citizens of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Country, establish Laws, make sure of Peace in our country, establish a Military, allow Voting, and make sure we have Freedom to ourselves and our Future, create this Constitution for the United States of America.”
I think the most important sentence or phase in the preamble is “we the people.”
I think it is because if means all citizens and states agree to the law.If it did not say that a question people might have is who agreed to the law.
As I read the translated version I think when the part says establish laws is important becaues I think everyone should have at least 1 set of rules to follow. I think this because if we did not have at least 1 set of rules to follow everyone would be out of controll.
In my opinion, I think the most important line in the article is, “We the People of the United States,”. I think this because back then the states were fighting with each other about alienists but by saying that it says that they are united with one another.
In the sentence “peace in are country” is important because some people don’t get along. There is also a lot of hate and lots of people shoot and blow up.
The most important line is “and make sure we have freedom to ourselves and our future (and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity)”. I think this part is the most important because the reason the colonies were fighting the British was to be free from them. This line proves that the colonies are free and always will be!
“Freedom” and “vote” are very important words because a while ago we didn’t all have freedom and that’s not fair but also if we agree with each other it can solve many things like fighting and wars.
If we agree with each other than there wont be as many fights or wars but if we work together it would be so much easyer.That’s is why “freedom” is very important.
“Vote” if we all were able to vote and not have one person in charge there wouldent be as many problems and this can also lead to more fights and war and that is not right we are fighting against each other when if we didn’t be so sensitive about everything we wouldn’t have family members getting hurt or even death.
This is why “freedom and “vote” are very important words.
I think the most important line is “Secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity” or “Make sure we have Freedom to ourselves and our Future”. I think this because you can have freedom but you need all the other stuff to stay free.
I think we the people of the united states is the most important statement because it shows how that america respects its people and it also says that this country is a democracy and in a democracy the people vote for its leaders and its laws.
I think when it said “and make sure we have Freedom to ourselves and our Future, create this Constitution for the United States of America” was in importent sentence.
I think “make shore of peace in our country” is the most inportiant because if there is no peace there is going to a lot more wars. Probly if there is a war one of the state leaders will die.
I think that the most important was “We the people of the United States of America”. I think this because it is showing who you are. It is also showing that you are part of this County.
I think that promote the general welfare (translated version: allow Voting ) is the most important part of the Preamble. I think this because when they were the colonies they had no vote for any thing. This is why I think that the most important part of the preamble is promote the general welfare.
I think the word peace or justice is importent because is to not live in fear. This proves that the word justice or peace is importent because if we did not have peace or justice we might have to live in fear that something bad is going to happen like some one stealing something importent.
The phrase i choose was ” In order to inform a more perfect country”. I choice that phrase because if they didn’t choose those words the preamble would probably be a list and less persuading. Also, i choice these words because this shows that the people are disagreeing but finding a good way to show it. That is why i chose that phrase.
I think the most important phase in the Preamble is ” We have freedom to ourselves and our future, ” I think this phase is important because we can have the freedom to vote and we have our rights in America. Also to have peace in our country.
I think the line ” make sure of Peace of our country” or ” provide for the common defense” is important. This is important because you need to have peace. You need to have peace so you don’t have fights or even wars with one another. Without peace you couldn’t have calmness. When you don’t have calmness you would have to constantly having to be frantic. This is why the line ” make Peace of our country” is important.
I think we should be roulade by a president not get to make laws we do and get shut down the government.
In my opinion I think that allowing voting is the most important part of the Preamble. I think this because everyone gets a chance to vote and make there own decisions. That is why I think allowing voting is the most important part of the Preamble.
