In STEAM, fourth and fifth graders remembered Constitution Day by discussing the importance of the Constitution. Students learned about how the Constitution is stored in the National Archives Building in a 50-ton steel concrete vault that could survive even if the building collapsed. Using basic craft materials, students created a model of a frame or security system that would preserve their own mini version of the Preamble to the Constitution. Students collaborated in teams of 3 or 4, and their designs had to meet several criteria, including surviving a drop test and water submersion test. It was an engaging way for them to think about the value of this historic document.
