Think about how the U. S. Constitution came about. Describe the reasons why the Founding Fathers decided to create a new document outlining the structure of the government. What were some of the important elements that were included in the Constitution? Which events led to the creation of the Constitution? Support your response with information from the lesson. Type your answer in the text box below.

Answer and Explanation:

1. The founders decided to create a new document when they saw that the articles of the confederation did not allow the creation of a strong government, which would leave the nation with many disadvantages, in addition to a strong disorganization that would weaken it.

2. The most important elements in this document were the creation of the central government, the unified economy and the addition of the bill of rights, which protected the people.

3. The events that created the creation of the constitution were the deficiency of the national army and the inability of the central government to collect charges. This left the nation extremely weakened and unsuccessful, as it did not promote the pursuit of national goals, strong military defense and good resource management.

there are two central themes in  the miracle worker: that the human spirit can triumph over even the most daunting of disabilities and that a dedicated teacher can transform the lives of those with whom he or she comes into contact. these inspirational themes have long been personified in the widely known true-life relationship between helen keller and annie sullivan, but  the miracle worker  also dramatizes collateral issues that extend beyond the particular case. underlying helen’s process of learning basic principles of what annie terms “obedience” (decorum, etiquette, and hygiene), there are more universal lessons of self-governance—the inculcation of self-restraint instead of willfulness, the development of self-discipline instead of self-indulgence. only when these lessons have been mastered can helen begin to acquire language—which, annie says, “is to the mind more than light is to the eye.”
