Constitution Day and Citizenship Day commemorates the September 1787 signing of the Constitution of the United States. This year, on Friday, September 16, students throughout the country will have an opportunity to learn about the history and meaning of the Constitution and the responsibilities and privileges of citizenship in the United States.

APSA has compiled selected Constitution Day and Citizenship Day resources with links to teaching resources for educators at all levels.  Links to APSA journals and books, including Teaching Civic Engagement: From Student to Active Citizen, are available. Other resources, including primary documents, lesson plans, interactive games, videos, and much more, have been made available by organizations such as the National Constitution Center, Annenberg Classroom, iCivics, the National Archives, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and others.
