Creating+the+Constitution

You will use HSTRY.org to create a timeline covering the creation of the Constitution and will start with the earliest conversation about changing the articles and end with the last state to ratify the Constitution. Learning to use HSTRY as a timeline creator is a snap. When you log in, use your school Google account and use the following class codes to sign up to the correct class:
 * 2nd Hour Class Code: 308 [[image:hstry.png width="250" link="@https://www.hstry.co/" align="right"]]
 * 3rd Hour Class Code: 12289
 * 4th Hour Class Code: 12294
 * 5th Hour Class Code: 12295

=Getting Started= After joining the correct class, you can create your own timeline. Before you do that, get a feel for what I am asking you to create by looking at an example of how this can be used: browse the Cuban Missile Crisis Timeline and look at how they used headings for each event and then used the bubbles to show about that item. That's what I'm looking for you to do.

When you're ready, you can start your timeline. Timelines are pre-populated with all of the different kinds of media bubbles available. Feel free to use any of the varieties of bubbles for your information. Be creative and informative.


 * A few words of warning** All images have to include the proper citation telling me (and the world) where they came from. Failure on the assignment can only occur if you violate this one rule: ALL TEXT MUST BE WRITTEN BY YOU -- NOTHING IS TO BE PASTED!

=List of Required Items= You will be expected to accurately research ALL of the following items and place them correctly on your timeline. Your timeline must include:
 * The Mount Vernon Conference (Compact or Agreement)
 * The Annapolis Convention
 * Shays' Rebellion
 * Philadelphia Convention

 * Great (Connecticut) Compromise
 * Three-Fifths Compromise
