power resides in the people. The people are Sovereign. Government can govern only with the
consent of the governed

Limited Government No government is all-powerful, that a
government may do only those things that the people have given it the power to do.

Separation of Powers Basic American powers are
distributed, separated among 3 distinct and independent branches of Government.
The Constitution distributes the powers of the National Government among the Congress (the legislative branch), the President (the executive branch), and the courts (the judicial branch).

Checks and Balances Each branch is subject to a number of
constitutional checks (restraints) by the other branches.
In other words, each branch has certain powers with which it can check the operations of the other two.

Judicial Review The power of courts to determine
whether what government does is in accord with what the Constitution provides.
It is the power of a court to determine the constitutionality of a governmental action.

What is the Constitution The Constitution is a fairly brief document, little more than 7,000
words. This brief document has successfully guided this nation through two centuries of tremendous growth and change. It begins with a short, noteworthy introduction, the Preamble, and the balance of the original document is divided into seven numbered sections called articles. The first 3 articles deal with the three branches of the National Government: Congress, the presidency, and the federal court system. Article IV deals mostly with the place of the States in the American Union and with their relationship with the National Government and with one another. Article V explains how formal amendments may be added to the document. Article VI declares that the Constitution is the nation’s supreme law. Finally, Article VII states the requirements for ratification. The seven articles of the original document are followed by 27 amendments, printed in the order in which they were adopted.

ACTIVITY! Assign the class into groups of 6. Each person in the
group will look in the book to define one of the six basic principles. Provide each group with 5-6 index cards. Have group members write the definition of their principle on one card, and examples of the principle or terms associated with it on the rest of the cards. Put what principle it is on the back. Cards from all of the groups should be placed in a box and shuffled. After the teacher has listed the six principles on the whiteboard, students should alternate turns picking a card and placing it under the appropriate principle on the board. Groups earn one point for each member’s correct response.
