Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court: Supreme Opinions

Students will read portions of Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court and use what they learned about the process of writing summary opinions to write a narrative skit that displays the dialogue from their understanding in the Judge’s chambers.

There are three lessons that can be used to complement a study of Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court and help students take a new perspective by merging ELA skills with civics knowledge.
