Description: 
The Founding Fathers of our country met in Philadelphia to create a Constitution--a document of rights and responsibilities for our whole country. This Constitution is the backbone of our nation, and students should from the earliest grades be familiar with its contents. In this lesson students will learn, through the reading of a fictional story, how the Bald Eagle reflects characteristics that also represent this country.
