An Amendment is a new clause introduced into the body of the constitution when the people (congress) feels that a particular subject is not dealt with appropriately.
For instance: When the constitution was first drafted all "men" were given the right to vote, however the definition of men required that they be male land-owners. When we as a culture decided that everyone should be allowed to vote, we had to change the language in the constitution by introducing the amendments to allow women and non-whites to vote.
