The National Archives has on loan a 1297 copy of the Magna Carta, and the National Archives website has a number of resources related to the Magna Carta. You can view a short video about the Magna Carta conservation treatment and encasement. There is a translation of the 1297 version of the document, a larger image of the 1297 Magna Carta, and an article on the background of the Magna Carta and its American legacy.

Begin the activity by asking students if they think laws are necessary. Move into a discussion exploring where students think that laws come from, who makes the laws, who is protected by laws. Help students understand that laws are developed and refined over time and that they are not created in a vacuum. Explain that when they were developing the Constitution, America's founding fathers relied upon the legal traditions that they were familiar with, especially English legal documents such as the Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights.

Direct students to the activity and tell them that they will read excerpts from the Magna Carta, the English Bill of Rights, and the U.S. Constitution. Ask them to pay particular attention to the continuities that they see across all three documents. Students can work individually, in pairs, or in small groups. Since these are relatively difficult documents, peer support may be helpful.Magna Carta exercised a strong influence both on the United States Constitution and on the constitutions of the various states. However, its influence was shaped by what eighteenth-century Americans believed Magna Carta to signify. Magna Carta was widely held to be the people’s reassertion of rights against an oppressive ruler, a legacy that captured American distrust of concentrated political power. In part because of this tradition, most of the state constitutions included declarations of rights intended to guarantee individual citizens a list of protections and immunities from the state government. The United States also adopted the Bill of Rights, in part, due to this political conviction.Both the state declarations of rights and the United States Bill of Rights incorporated several guarantees that were understood at the time of their ratification to descend from rights protected by Magna Carta. Among these are freedom from unlawful searches and seizures, a right to a speedy trial, a right to a jury trial in both a criminal and a civil case, and protection from loss of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. Many broader American constitutional principles have their roots in an eighteenth-century understanding of Magna Carta, such as the theory of representative government, the idea of a supreme law, and judicial review.

How do you think that law codes will continue to develop in the future?

Finally, direct students to the final activity in the "When you're done" section: Write a paragraph highlighting the ways that the Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights influenced the development of the U.S. Bill of Rights, as well as the ways that the U.S. Bill of Rights was unique.
