1/15/14

We began class by finishing our review of the Bill of Rights station activity, if we did not finish the discussion in yesterday's class.

Next, I assigned students a writing assignment on the Bill of Rights.  There were three different levels of the assignment.  Students need to choose a level, and answer the corresponding question.  I provided students class time to work on this assignment.

Constitution and Bill of Rights

I then split the class into small groups.  Each group read about Miranda Rights.  Following the reading they discussed the questions on the next page of the reading.

Miranda vs. Arizona Reading and Discussion Questions

At the end of class we had a "Take-A-Stand" style discussion on two of the discussion questions.

Homework is to finish the Bill of Rights writing assignment.  See the blog for the writing assignment.
