Constitution Connection
(p. 1 of 3)
Article 5 of the United States Constitution provides for the addition of amendments to the Constitution.
However, passing an amendment to the U.S. Constitution is difficult. Three-quarters of the states must ratify the
proposed amendment before it can become part of the U.S. Constitution.
During Reconstruction, Congress passed three key amendments that were added to the United States
Constitution. These amendments, known as the Reconstruction amendments, were designed to provide protection
for the newly freed slaves. These amendments to the Constitution were added to force a change in society.
I. Constitution Vocabulary

to the Constitution.
ratified ________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Voters elected more than 1,000 delegates to attend the 1867-1868 state constitutional conventions. The majority of
the delegates were Republicans. In addition to the fact that the delegates were overwhelmingly Republican,
differences in their backgrounds and experiences caused dissension.
In the chart below, the number of black and white delegates attending the constitutional conventions is defined. Read
the directions below to calculate and to interpret constitutional data.
Directions:
1. Calculate the total number of delegates attending each states convention and record in the appropriate column.
2. Find the percentage of black and white delegates and record the numbers in the last two columns.
3. Create a bar graph on a separate piece of paper showing the number of delegates attending the state conventions.
Give your graph a title and label the x and y axis.
4. Create a double bar graph on a separate piece of paper comparing the total number of blacks and the total
number of whites attending the state conventions. Include a title for the graph and label the x and y axis.
