was written. They believed it gave too much power to the new
government. Those people suggested changes. A formal change
to the Constitution is called an amendment. The first ten
amendments are called the Bill of Rights.

property. Usually, government officials like the police need a
search warrant. A search warrant is issued by a judge. It says
exactly who and what will be searched.
Amendment 5 explains when the government can take private
property. Some reasons for this include to build roads or parks.
