Drone cameras make some pretty good videos.

                Today in class I completed my missed test on the early settlement and separation of America from Britain. Unfortunately, I think I missed the daily Moment of Zen due to this. The multiple choice questions were relatively easy, but the short answer took longer than I thought. Due to being half asleep from my cold, my mind kept wandering as I was trying to write the essay. Oh well, if you think it’s good Mr. Schick, then I guess it’s O.K. The three documents I was told to take notes on and research were A.B.C.; standing for The Articles of Confederation, The Bill of Rights, and the Constitution.

The Articles of Confederation

http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsl&fileName=001/llsl001.db&recNum=127

-Opening paragraph discusses which states are accepting this document

-There are five articles

-Each article states how a different part of government will work

-First article states that this confederacy shall be called the United States of America

Bill of Rights

http://www.billofrightsinstitute.org/founding-documents/bill-of-rights/

-The Bill of Rights is the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution

-The first amendment is about freedom of speech, religion, etc.

-2-4 talk about the rights of people towards the government or the military, mostly saying that the government/soldiers will do the exact opposite of what Britain did

-6-7 discuss the rights of people in court

-7-8 discuss jail and bail (rhymes)

-9-10 discuss that government can’t take away your rights and that the rights not owned by the government are owned by the people

The Constitution

http://constitutionus.com/

-Opening phrase ‘We the People’

-Has ‘Sections’ and within those, ‘Articles’

(I’m going to use the headers for each section from the site, but I’m not going to use quotes so don’t freak out)

-Article 1- Legislation

-Article 2- Executive

-Article 3- Judicial

-Article 4- State’s Relations

-Article 5- Mode of Amendment

-Article 6- Prior Debts, National Supremacy, Oaths of Office

-Article 7- Ratification

Side note: I know I’ve already mentioned these people in a past video, but it somehow didn’t click until now. Impact Props not only makes great game props, but they also make fantastic videos. Thought you might at least see the opening, as it has some cool camera effects.
