Teacher’s Manual with answers for You Decide! Applying the Bill of Rights to Real Cases

You Decide! casts students in the role of judges, examining, discussing and deciding on 75 actual U.S. Supreme Court cases! Students will learn that deciding cases in a judicial role requires them to resist snap decisions, ignore personal feelings and prejudices, and evaluate cases according to the facts presented, the rights granted by specific amendments, and the interpretation of these rights according to judicial precedents set in other cases.

By discussing the origins, meanings, and applications of the amendments, students develop an objective understanding of how today’s rights and laws have evolved from the Bill of Rights.
