The Preamble
The video in the image is the "preamble" segment from the schoolhouse rock series. This video is an animated short film, featuring a catchy song. I really like how this video in just three minutes, manages to sum up the Preamble. This video is a great example, and it effectively uses historical information as a great educational tool that sets the U.S. Constitution as a memorable tool. I would recommend that more schools use this video to help their students learn about the preamble.
This picture above is what the Preamble says. It is not the actual copy of the original Preamble, but it is a good way to show what the Preamble looks like and what it says. This is a brief introduction to the U.S. Constitution, stating the reasons for establishment and the goals aim to achieve. Overall, the Preamble sets the stage for the highest law of the land, although it does not define government powers or individual rights.
