  13. 三 Citizenship: Just The Facts As I read aloud, please read silently along with me. Be on the lookout for underlined words that should be written into your notes.

  14. (write the definition of citizenship in the citizenship box) Citizenship means to be a member of a nation or country, and to have full rights and responsibilities under the law. In the United States there are three ways to become a citizen: being born in the United States, having parents who are citizens of the United States, and going through a process called naturalization.

  15. (write two of the five requirements for naturalization in the naturalization box) Naturalization is the process that allows immigrants to become citizens. Most people who apply for citizenship fall into this category: they are over 18 years old and have been permanent residents of the United States for 5 years.

  16. (write three of the five requirements for naturalization in the naturalization box) They must also have good character, speak English, and pass a civics test and an interview! The last step involves taking an Oath of Allegiance to the United States and our Constitution. There is one shortcut! People who serve in the U.S. military for at least one year can become citizens sooner, because they have demonstrated their commitment to the United States.

People who serve in the U.S. military for at least one year can become citizens sooner, because they have demonstrated their commitment to the United States. Oath of Allegiance

  18. No need to take notes on this one.

  19. (in the rights box,write five rights that a U.S. citizen has) In 1791, ten amendments, or changes, were added to the Constitution. These are called the Bill of Rights. They explain some of the rights we enjoy here in the United States, including freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, protection under the law, access to the judicial system, and more!

  20. (in the responsibilities box, write five responsibilities that a U.S. citizen has) Along with all these freedoms come some responsibilities, too. As citizens, we are responsible for doing things like serving on juries, obeying laws, tolerating differences in those around us, and participating in our government (like VOTING)!

  21. (no instructions here, so sit back and listen) 1791 was a long time ago and not everyone was considered a citizen at that time. When the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution only “free white persons” were considered citizens. In 1868, at the end of the Civil War, another amendment was added to the Constitution.

  22. (no instructions here, so sit back and listen) This 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all people born in the United States. Over the next 100 years, citizenship was granted to Native Americans and children born to American parents outside the United States. In 1952, the U.S. Congress passed a law to say that citizenship could not be denied because of a person’s race or gender.

  23. 四 My Idea of Oath You may work with one other person. Do not move the desks. If you and your partner had your own country, what are three things you would ask citizens to promise? Write down your oaths on the back of your page. If you remember what the U.S. oath said and you want to steal some from there, that is fine. You and your partner do not need the same three oaths.

  24. 五 Matching Citizenships I need eight volunteers. Please stand next to your desk quietly.

The case that said that African-Americans brought into the country as slaves could never be citizens was _____________________________________. property owners Brown v.
