Before you begin
Distinguish a constitutional rule from an ordinary law and identify a stated right.
How to use this worksheet
- Model the target skill: identify the Bill of Rights as the first ten amendments added to the US Constitution in 1791. Use the first task as a guided example before asking for an independent response.
- Check readiness first: Distinguish a constitutional rule from an ordinary law and identify a stated right.
- Discuss an incorrect response using this distinction: A short amendment summary is not the full legal rule; context matters when applying a right to a scenario.
