Lesson
Plan

(75
minutes)
What:
Students
will
receive
an
introduction
of
the
mini
course
objectives
and
what
will
be
required
of
them
throughout
the
course.
Students
will
also
learn
about
Supreme
Court
Proceedings,
the
roles
they
will
play
in
the
trial
simulation,
and
the
Supreme
Court
case
of
Roe
vs.
Wade.
How:
A
syllabus
will
be
created
for
the
course,
which
will
contain
the
courses
essential
question,
course
assignments
and
learning
objectives.
This
syllabus
will
be
reviewed
in
class.
An
opening
activity
will
be
used
to
introduce
court
cases
as
agents
of
change
and
as
ways
to
settle
to
disputes.
Students
will
work
together
to
compile
a
list
of
what
they
know
and
do
not
know
about
court
cases
and
Roe
vs.
Wade.
Students
will
also
be
introduced
to
the
roles
they
will
have
in
the
trial
simulation,
and
will
use
these
roles
to
try
and
figure
out
how
cases
make
it
to
the
Supreme
Court.
The
lesson
will
end
with
an
assignment
of
roles
for
each
position
of
the
argument.
Why:
Currently
in
Social
Studies
my
students
have
just
completed
a
research
paper
that
deals
with
controversial
issues
surrounding
the
constitution.
I
feel
that
it
would
be
relevant
to
use
a
controversial
issue
to
help
them
learn
how
legislation
in
our
country
is
created
and
certain
issues
are
resolved.
Goal/Objective:
Students
will
gain
an
understanding
of
what
will
be
asked
of
them
through
this
mini
course.
Students
will
gain
an
understanding
of
how
cases
make
it
to
the
Supreme
Court,
Supreme
Court
Proceedings,
The
Hyde
Amendment,
and
the
roles
they
will
play
during
the
simulation.
Materials:
Over
head
projector,
Teacher
Version
of
Mini
Course
Syllabus,
Mini
Course
Syllabus
for
students,
T-Chart
Print
outs,
Someone
to
scribe
Beginning:
(5
minutes)
All
needed
handouts
for
the
students
will
be
placed
on
the
sitting
spaces.
As
an
opener
students
will
be
asked
to
jot
down
everything
that
comes
to
their
mind
when
they
think
about
change
in
our
country.
(2
minutes)
Students
will
turn
and
talk
with
another
student
to
share
their
jots.
(1
minute)
I
will
then
call
on
students
to
share
a
loud
what
they
wrote
down
with
the
whole
class
and
allow
students
to
share
their
thoughts
on
each
others
comments
(2
minutes)
Transition:
Ok
these
are
all
good
thoughts
everyone.
As
some
of
you
have
already
mentioned
it,
one
of
the
ways
we
will
be
looking
at
change
in
our
mini
course
is
through
the
Supreme
Court,
which
is
a
big
part
of
our
Judicial
system.
Now
raise
your
handle
if
you
are
familiar
with
the
Supreme
Court
Case
of
Roe
vs.
Wade.
During:
Students
will
then
be
asked
to
share
and
comment
on
what
they
know
about
the
Roe
vs.
Wade
Supreme
Court
case
and
current
debates
around
abortion.
(5
minutes)
Transition:
Great!
This
is
all
very
good.
So
as
many
of
you
know,
this
will
be
the
debate
topic
for
our
trial
simulation,
so
being
familiar
with
this
will
be
pretty
important.
Heres
what
our
preparation
for
the
trial
simulation
will
look
like.
After
this
discussion
I
will
go
over
the
Mini
Course
syllabus
with
my
students.
The
teacher
copy
I
have
will
be
prompted
with
reminders
to
wait
and
allow
for
questions
after
certain
points
in
the
syllabus,
as
well
as
specifics
and
examples
that
I
will
mention
to
the
students
on
the
type
of
work
they
will
be
doing
and
the
varying
skills
they
will
learn.
I
will
again
wait
after
I
am
done
explaining
the
syllabus
for
any
remaining
questions
that
may
come
up.
(5
minutes)
KWL-Chart:
(15
minutes)
Students
will
then
fill
out
their
T
chart
for
Supreme
Court
proceedings.
This
T-
Chart
will
outline
for
them
what
they
do
know,
do
not
know,
and
wish
to
know
about
Supreme
Court
proceedings
and
how
cases
make
it
to
the
Supreme
Court.
Transition:
Ok,
thats
about
it?
Im
extremely
impressed
with
how
much
you
all
know.
And
for
your
questions,
many
of
them
will
be
answered
very
soon.
I
will
then
direct
them
to
the
handout
that
contains
a
list
of
the
roles
of
people
that
are
integral
to
the
Supreme
Court
Process.
They
will
read
each
of
the
roles
aloud
and
I
will
also
take
time
to
provide
clarity
around
the
roles.
I
will
then
direct
them
to
the
description
below
of
the
roles
people
played
in
an
actual
court
case.
The
proceedings
and
roles
will
be
misplaced
so
that
in
the
process
of
attaching
the
names
of
the
roles
to
the
written
will
help
students
understand
the
process
of
Supreme
Court
trials
and
the
process
for
court
cases
to
make
it
to
the
Supreme
Court.
(10
minutes)
I
will
then
review
the
Power
Point
that
outlines
all
of
the
roles
and
proceedings
in
both
processes
so
that
there
are
not
any
lingering
misunderstandings
about
this
exercise.
Questions
will
also
be
taken
during
this
time
period.
(10
minutes)
Transition:
Ok
good?
So
now
what
were
going
to
do
is
select
teams
and
roles,
and
talk
about
what
each
of
these
will
look
like
within
the
simulation.
Students
will
be
randomly
divided
up
into
two
teams
and
roles
will
be
randomly
assigned.
This
will
most
likely
be
done
by
selecting
folded
papers
with
roles
and
teams
on
them
from
the
jar.
Roles
will
be
described
in
reference
to
the
simulation.
Particularly
who
will
collaborate
with
who
and
the
sequence
of
events
for
the
simulation.
(15
minutes)
Debrief
(10
minutes)
Specifics
on
the
assignment
for
Tuesday
will
be
the
first
thing
to
be
addressed
in
the
debrief.
Aspects
of
research
will
be
addressed
in
a
short
power
point
slide.
Time
will
be
allotted
for
any
residual
questions
or
concerns.
