Constitution of the United States Booklet

Imagination is the beginning of creation.
You imagine what you desire,
​you will what you imagine,
​and at last, you create what you will.
George Bernard Shaw. 
After studying the Constitutional Convention, the Constitution, the Preamble, the Bill of Rights, and court cases associated with student rights, you will create a booklet that analyzes and creates what is relevant to you in our Constitution.
