Due: Wednesday, 12/10 (Period 7), Thursday, 12/11 (Period 8)

After reading Chapter 22 Section 4 choose an Enlightenment idea that is reflected in the Constitution or the building of the U.S. government. You may use the chart on page 566 as a guide.

Create an 8 1/2 x 11 inch poster (regular sheet of computer paper) that uses both words and images (must use both) to show how Enlightenment ideas were expressed in the Constiution or in the building of the United States government.

Include the following items for maximum points:

1.The Enlightenment idea and its creator (Locke, Rosseau, etc)
2. Where or how the idea is specifically reflected in the U.S. government or Constitution (the Bill of Rights is part of the Constitution).
3. An image or images that reflects the transfer of this idea or the idea itself. The images can be hand-drawn, self-created, or from the internet. Creativity is welcome (for once!).
