DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE Activity: Primary Source Analysis and Questions
The Declaration of Independence can be a daunting document for teachers to explain to students, but this primary source lesson will help students understand the major themes and concepts within the document itself. Though Thomas Jefferson's Declaration was written in the 18th century, this worksheet has proven to be a fantastic, big-picture way for today's students to study such an important writing without becoming overwhelmed. The Declaration is really just a big "break-up letter" from the co

You Be the Judge - analyzing Supreme Court cases on the Bill of Rights
It’s one thing to simply memorize the Bill of Rights; it’s quite another to actually understand how they apply in everyday life. Teaching the former gives students words but no understanding for what they mean; teaching the latter gives students practice in critical thinking as well as a deep appreciation for their basic rights as American citizens. It is, in effect, the ultimate lesson in civics.
This activity is designed to teach students the meaning and application of the Bill of Rights by h

In the 1896 case of Plessy v. Ferguson the Supreme Court ruled that segregation of races in public life was perfectly legal under the doctrine of “separate but equal.” This ruling legitimized Jim Crow laws and second-class citizenship for generations of African-Americans. Finally, in 1954, the Supreme Court reversed itself in the case of Brown v. Board of Education and banned the “separate but equal” doctrine, finally paving the way for true equal rights for African-Americans, nearly 1
