The re-Ratify Project is an online curriculum designed to teach about the U.S. Constitution through a serious of lessons. Participants are called "Ratifiers" as they are taught to "re-Ratify" each part of the Constitution in their own heart and mind. Intended for families, school classes, home-schoolers, or neighborhood groups, the re-Ratify Project is written to the parent, teacher, or group leader with instructions for preparing each activity and script to teach Ratifiers. Activities and games are constructed from common household items to facilitate quick, easy and inexpensive object lessons.
