About this title

Synopsis

This highly recommended 144-page teacher's guide is used with the You Decide! student book–sold separately–to teach students about the Bill of Rights. This guide includes objectives, suggestions, and a graphic organizer to keep track of facts in each case and the Supreme Court decisions. Because the student book does not contain the court decisions, use of the guide is essential.

Students acquire an in depth understanding of the Bill of Rights by:
    • Learning each of the first 8 amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
    • Reading real court cases involving each amendment.
    • Judging each case based on their knowledge of the relevant amendment and the facts of the case.
    • Comparing their ruling with the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court.
