Introduction
E-Mail this Page Glossary


The Educators section of THE SUPREME COURT Web site was developed in close concert with Civic, American History and Social Studies teachers. A recurring topic from our advisors was to develop projects and activities that help students examine the role of The Supreme Court in history, as well as in our daily lives. This section of the site -- with interactive games, Lesson Plans for ages 9-18, and downloadable video segments -- offers resources we hope you will find valuable for your classrooms.
