Landmark Supreme Court Cases Scavenger Hunt - Reading Comprehension

The Landmark Supreme Court Cases Scavenger Hunt is an engaging cross-curriculum reading comprehension activity. Allow your students to move around the room, visit reading passages and answer questions. The student recording sheet is broken down into different skills – ELA, Math, Context Clues, Drawing and Writing.

Topics include: Brown v. Board, Plessy v Ferguson, Miranda v Arizona, Bush v Gore, US v Nixon, Gideon v Wainwright, Hazelwood v Kuhlmeier, Tinker v Des Moines, DC v Heller, In re Gault, US Constitution and amendments.
