Your children will sharpen their critical thinking skills and their legal and historical knowledge as they analyze the amendments, discover their origins, and rule on actual cases presented before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Each unit explores:

  • The language, meaning, and history of an amendment
  • How the amendment was applied in various cases
  • Classic and contemporary cases children must decide based on what they've learned about the amendments

Because the student book does not contain the court decisions, use of the Instruction/Answer Guide is essential. It also includes objectives, suggestions and a graphic organizer to keep track of facts in each case.
