Inquiry Based Mock Trial Template Social Studies C3 Framework with Rubric
- Zip
What educators are saying
Description
Over the last few years, as I've transitioned my Social Studies classroom to an inquiry based experience, I've gradually adjusted my summative assessments to evaluate student learning. This template allows you to create an inquiry for any Social Studies topic with a Mock Trial as the summative assessment.
If you've always wanted to try designing your own inquiry, but have struggled with the structure, this template is for you! It scaffolds the process to make the design process much more manageable and understandable. It also lays out the full process of a Mock Trial. This will make designing a Mock Trial much more manageable. This resource is fully editable. I've included a PowerPoint version and a link to a Google Slides version.
Create an authentic structured inquiry for any topic!
This download includes:
● A 5 page editable template for laying out your own inquiry
