Enumerated Power

A few years ago, I was asked to teach the US Constitution to fourth graders. I have a degree in Political Science, so I guess I’m qualified.

I broke the class into different branches. We had a President and Vice President, three Supreme Court Justices, and the rest were divided between the House and Senate.

The kids made their own law which passed unanimously: HR1 All Candy Is Free Act. I tried to convince the Supreme Court it was unconstitutional, but they found it to be in keeping with Article I, Section 8; that Congress shall provide for the general Welfare.
