Homeschool Court 07 Student Case Summary School Prayer (Digital)

by Homeschool Court

$4.99

This student case summary involves a case on appeal that argues whether a school prayer is constitutional.

In an appeals case based upon a Supreme Court case, like this one, the student attorneys will be engaging in oral argument. Evidence is not presented like it is in a trial. In a Supreme Court case, one attorney will attempt to persuade the Justices to rule in his/her favor, while the other attorney will do the same. In actual cases, each attorney (or group of attorneys) is given 30 minutes to present its case, while also answering the questions of the Justices. You may decide to have a different time limit in your mock trial.

The Student materials include: a summary of the facts, lower court decisions, and the elements of the law and prior case law,

There are 9 pages of student material, including one title page and one copyright page.

    Homeschool Court helps your child discover and love the American judicial system with a curriculum that ends with a mock trial! This ready-to-use Christian mock trial curriculum for grades 4-12 is great as a stand-alone class or a comprehensive supplement for a civics, government or logic course.

    With a conversational style, this worktext walks students through the legal system from basic terminology and understanding of the participants in court to digging into criminal, civil and constitutional law. A special chapter introduces the student to legal history and explains what a biblical worldview is.

    While the curriculum is easily adapted to high school students by using the ""Digging Deeper"" activities at the end of each chapter, there is also a High School Supplement available to dig even deeper! Teacher Manuals for the Student Worktext and the High School Supplement include the student components in grayscale, along with answers and additional teaching ideas and content.

    Holding a mock trial at the end of the course (or a debate or final paper) will require a Student and Teacher Case Summary that will provide all the material you will need--from the facts of the case to the actual case outcome (for the teacher to divulge at the end). Trial and appellate cases are available.
