What educators are saying

This activity is highly engaging and rigorous! My students were able to practice skills independently with this resource.
This is by far one of my favorite activities I have used in social studies this year! My students loved reading the scenarios and deciding what amendment and if rights were violated. My favorite part was listening to the conversations the scenarios created in my class. Thank you!
