3/7 Quick Write:
Now that we have analyzed judicial review, and examined how it became an established power for the Supreme Court, we are going to study how judicial review has actually played out in real life. Today we will look at landmark (important, significant) court cases where the Supreme Court has used judicial review. Every court case we’ll discuss relates to teens; the first one is Tinker v. Des Moines.
Tinker v. Des Moines set a precedent about free speech in schools, and the ruling, or decision, in Tinker has effected other free-speech court case decisions. Consider the following things while watching the video above:
- Who?
- When?
- Issue?
- Decision?
- Effects?
- Agree?
We will read through the Tinker case, and, as a class, we will discuss the relevance of the ruling on our lives inside of school.
Reminder: CURRENT EVENT DUE TOMORROW!
