Abstract
This is an activity, one that I have piloted with my most recent cohort of secondary social studies methods MAT students, in which the students—alone, in small groups, and with the whole class—explore the New York State Constitution. This can rather readily be adapted for other states as well. In our experience, it proved very illuminating in that many of the things that make our state unique are enumerated in the state constitution.
