You Be the Judge - analyzing Supreme Court cases on the Bill of Rights
It’s one thing to simply memorize the Bill of Rights; it’s quite another to actually understand how they apply in everyday life. Teaching the former gives students words but no understanding for what they mean; teaching the latter gives students practice in critical thinking as well as a deep appreciation for their basic rights as American citizens. It is, in effect, the ultimate lesson in civics.
This activity is designed to teach students the meaning and application of the Bill of Rights by h

Plessy v. Ferguson/ Brown v. Board of Education primary source analysis activity
“Great!”
In the 1896 case of Plessy v. Ferguson the Supreme Court ruled that segregation of races in public life was perfectly legal under the doctrine of “separate but equal.” This ruling legitimized Jim Crow laws and second-class citizenship for generations of African-Americans. Finally, in 1954, the Supreme Court reversed itself in the case of Brown v. Board of Education and banned the “separate but equal” doctrine, finally paving the way for true equal rights for African-Americans, nearly 1

Primary Source Analysis Activity - Marbury v. Madison and Federalist #78
Everybody “knows” that the Courts have the power to declare any law passed by Congress “unconstitutional,” but where did that power come from? The Constitution itself is silent on the matter, and several founding fathers, including Jefferson, argued that this power resided in the Legislative Branch, rather than the Judiciary. That question remained unanswered for the first 15 years of the new Republic until Justice John Marshall’s opinion in the 1803 case of Marbury v. Madison, which established

We Take Nothing by Conquest - a US History textbook, Columbus to Reconstruction
"Fantastic!"When I started teaching 8th grade US history 10 years ago, I searched high and low for a good textbook. Needless to say, that search was fruitless. The textbooks that I found were either incomprehensibly written or dumbed down to the point of being intellectually insulting to a 13 year old. Moreover, none told the story of our history that my students really wanted to hear: the history of African-Americans, of Native Americans, and what life was really like for our ancestors. Followi

Dred Scott v. Sandford primary source analysis activity
In 1858, as the fight over the future of slavery in the United States was reaching fever pitch, the Supreme Court was asked to rule on the case of Dred Scott v. Sandford. Scott, a slave from Missouri, had lived with a previous owner both in the free state of Illinois and the free Wisconsin territory. Scott later sued for his freedom in the Missouri Courts under the Missouri common law doctrine of “once free, always free.” After a tortuous appeals process, the case finally made its way to the US
