Each student will be given a proclamation to encourage reading the Constitution, a proclamation with a simple wording explanation of what the Preamble means, bookmarks, Constitution Word Search Puzzles and candy in a napkin made envelope. After Constitution Week, each student will be given an Award Certificate for studying the Constitution and the Preamble.
