Homeschool Court 20 High School Student Worktext (Digital)

by Homeschool Court

Original price was: $19.99.Current price is: $15.99.

This Student Worktext contains everything that is in the regular worktext, but provides additional content at the high school level. For example, while it includes the same information provided about the different types of courts in the U.S., it also provides additional content about the U.S. Supreme Court for high school students. This enables students from grades 4-12 to use the curriculum together, but allows high school students (or even younger students with a deep interest in the material) to learn more at their interest and academic level.

 

This worktext will walk the students step-by-step in learning about our legal system, and as they prepare for a mock trial. (Holding a debate or having the student write a persuasive paper based upon a case summary are also possible ways to end the course!)

    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.
