Example of an Amendment

The Senate has decided that the Constitution is lacking information about the rights of citizens to not be submitted to the death penalty. So they decide to make an addition to the Constitution in order to make it against the submit anyone to the death penalty. They ratify it by a 2/3 vote and so does the House. They then send it to the state Legislatures who ratify it with a ¾ vote officially making it an amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.
