Mock process and appeal arguments for high school students Each lesson contains all the information you need to prepare for your visit and introduce it to students. Again, it is important that you talk to the teacher ahead of time and share the lesson and materials. Course plans developed by students at the University of Washington School of Law for the Street Law course and provided free of charge. Use fairy tales and children`s literature to develop your own mock trial This lesson was inspired by the annual Law Day Fairy Tale Fair Trials developed and conducted by the Monroe County Bar Association through its wonderful volunteers on the Law Day Fairy Tale Trials Committee. If you find that a simulated attempt does not work with the class you wish to attend, we recommend the following lesson I took my frog to school – No animals in the library. Pick up a copy of Eric Kimmel`s book I Took My Frog to School at your local library and read it to students. Better yet, buy a copy of the book ($5.99) and then, when you leave, give it to the teacher for the classroom library. It`s a very short story about a young girl who brings various animals to the library, which leads to chaos and chaos. The story is used to introduce students to the subject of the lesson and build a relationship with them. After reading the story, the transition moves on to the «No Animals in the Library» lesson, which helps students think about the rules and why they are necessary. The lesson also explores what makes a good rule, what happens when the rules are unclear, and helps students think about the appropriate consequences of rule violations. This is a very engaging lesson and you will find that even young students are very perceptive in their thinking. Have fun and bring a stuffed animal.

Would a stuffed animal be allowed under the «no animals» rule? Scott v. Harris, 550 U.S. 372 (2007) This case was eventually decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. It raises Fourth Amendment seizure issues and involves a teenage driver who decided to flee police when they attempted to stop him for a minor traffic violation. The ensuing chase was interrupted by police when they used a police maneuver to push the teen`s car off the road to ensure public safety. The police action caused a car accident and left the teenager paralyzed. The question put to the students at the hearing is: Does the seizure of the youth`s car by the police violate the youth`s protection from inappropriate seizures? The teaching material provides general information about the case and explains different ways in which the case can be used with students.
