Clemente Family Update 11/28/2021
|
|
In our US History classes, we just wrapped up our unit on Colonialism in the Americas, and now we’re moving to our Constitution unit. We’re beginning by covering civil liberties, the limits on how the government can treat its citizens, by analyzing real court cases that deal with citizen-police interactions. The students usually find this really engaging, and we’ve had some excellent debates in class so far! Students have a lot of prior knowledge on civil liberties based on what they’ve seen in movies or on TV, but with that knowledge comes misconceptions that we’re trying to tease out. We hope this unit provides students with a base of knowledge about their rights as US citizens that they can use for the rest of their lives!
