Critical Thinking HS ELA, Second Amendment, Gun Control, Argumentative Passages

NY State Rifle and Pistol Ass., Inc., et al. v. Bruen (2022)

Do you want to help your students understand one of the most contentious topics facing us today?

The Second Amendment is a hot topic, and teachers must be prepared to discuss it in the classroom. With the recent Supreme Court ruling on gun ownership, it’s now more important than ever to give your students access to accurate and up-to-date information that they can use while forming their own opinions on this complex issue.

I hope this Court Case Summary Debate assists the teaching of this challenging yet important topic.

CUSTOMER COMMENTS:

Kids found this fascinating. I'm trying to incorporate more real-world examples this year to foster critical thinking and this was perfect. Students have been asking to do more case studies like this in the weeks following the implementation of this lesson. 

“This was apparently a perfect sub lesson for my 10th grade. So sad I missed out on it with the kids! Thanks. They had a blast with this.”
