Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
This amendment is about how people should have the right to say what they want and be any religion. People should have the right to say anything because people should talk the way they feel and say what they want because they want to speak the way they feel They should be any religion because it don’t matter what religion you are you should be friend with anyone. People should have the right to be any religion because it don’t matter what religion you are. You should still be able to live at the place.

1st amendment
1”freedom of speech”
I learn that James Madison pointed to freedom of speech as a vital aspect of a healthy republic and the first amendment English Bill of Rights includes a precursor to the First Amendment’s protection of free speech, but while the English Bill of Rights provided for free speech in Parliament, the First Amendment expanded the protection to an individual right of all citizens.

I learn that the First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the right to freedom of religion and freedom of expression from government interference.

I learn that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
I learn that reedom of speech encompasses not only the spoken and written word, but also all kinds of expression (including non-verbal communications, such as sit-ins, art, photographs, films and advertisements).

I learn that the Freedom Forum's First Amendment Center presents several programs addressing aspects of free speech, including Freedom Sings and First Amendment on Campus.
“Freedom of religion”
http://www.illinoisfirstamendmentcenter.com/religion.php
Religious freedom is an absolute right, and includes the right to practice any religion of one’s choice, or no religion at all, and to do this without government control.
Today, what constitutes an "establishment of religion" is often governed under the three-part test set forth by the U.S. Supreme Court in Lemon v. Kurtz man, 403 U.S. 602 (1971).
Citizens have freedom to attend a church, synagogue, temple or mosque of their choice — or not to attend at all.

First Amendment protects the freedom of conscience—broadly understood as the ‘moral powers of rationality and reasonableness in terms of which persons define personal and ethical meaning in living’
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_religion_in_the_United_States
Freedom of religion is also closely associated with separation of church and state, a concept advocated by Thomas Jefferson.
“Freedom of press”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_the_press_in_the_United_States
Freedom of the press in the United States is protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution
http://www.illinoisfirstamendmentcenter.com/freedom_press_history.php
The press in America had gravitated towards the role of watchdog over the government, which has earned it the title of the “Fourth Estate.”
The press in the United States is freer than in any other country in the world, and virtually any in history.

1) Does a student have the right to express his/her opinions and beliefs in school?
but in order to really participate, we need to know our rights - otherwise we may lose them. The highest law in our land is the U.S. Constitution, which has some amendments, known as the Bill of Rights. I like your answer because you have facts
2) Does ‘freedom of the press’ mean the news media can say or write anything they want?
The freedom of the press provision of the Bill of Rights gives newspapers, magazines and other publications the right to print factual stories on whatever they see fit. I like your answer because you explain the freedom of press
3) Is it constitutional to teach about religion in a public school?
Students have the right to engage in voluntary individual prayer that is not coercive and does not substantially disrupt the school's educational mission and activities. For example, all students have the right to say a blessing before eating a meal. However, school officials must not promote or encourage a student's personal prayer. Students may engage with other students in religious activity during non-curricular periods as long as the activity is not coercive or disruptive.al or conventional, without interference from the government. I like your answer because you tell me what the student can engage with the religious
