Week of 1 March 2010

This week we will be taking a good look at the Bill of Rights and later Amendments to the Constitution. We will also be investigating the role of the Judicial Branch, particularly the Supreme Court, in help to define a couple of key clauses in the First Amendment - the "Establishment Clause" and Expression. This will take us to the computer lab to begin working on a task that will be completed later in the semester. Also, we will be having a couple of quizzes - "Goals & Principles of the Constitution" and "Structure of the Constitution." Plan for a test on Friday on Unit 2B: The Constitution.

I am planning to hold a review session this Tuesday regarding the current unit and the test at the end of the week - Unit 2B: the Constitution.
