We began discussing several significant SCOTUS cases that involve the 1st and 4th Amendments: Tinker v. Des Moines, NJ v. TLO, and Redding v. Safford.
Which case was the most interesting or shocking?
Post a comment and use details.
What did you think of SUPREME DECISION (the game about Ben’s Case)?
HUZZAH to the following classes that tied for FiRST PLaCe in CLASS WARS:
One morning i woke up to this cartoon called Planet Sheen, before turning it off. The boy sheen was arguing with an Emperor about unfairly throwing a monkey in jail without a fair public trial. This reminded me of the bill of rights, the 6th amendment covers the right to a speedy fair public trial which is what the monkey was looking for on the show.
The Dell computer is a great tool to use during class. We can see the notes a lot better than on the activeboard.
Hi Drew, Yes. You just need to finish the prompt.
This is about the homework, I was wondering if we are allowed to write our answers in just 1 sentence.
I would say the Tinker case was more interesting because that is still a problem that happens throughout the year. Also this case affects me because i know a student who had a “disruptive shirt” and was told to turn it inside out.
i enjoyed todays activity
Hi ms d ! The iPad is a really good tool to use for social studies. But it keeps freezing up whenever we go to a different page. This is a great way to copy notes from also.
Hi Ms.Digangi
Today in class me and Kyle. We used the 2 go PC. It was really helpful. We liked this becuase we didnt have to look up at the board. We also thought using this was fun.
This “prehistoric” laptop was really difficult. It was slow and the screen was too dark! We would choose to have the ipad instead. Since it works more efficiently
Hi Ms.D ! Thanks for letting me and sam use the iPad ! It’s such a great way to learn. It really helped us get an idea of all the great things that we have been talking about! Tehe! So thank you !
Hi Ms. D, We had a great time using the tablet. We haven’t had many errors with it. Although accessing the blog resulted in freezing.
The case that was most shocking to me was the Redding v. Safford case. As stated in the packet, the search would have been Constitutional if the strip search was not done. The school had no proof other than hearsay that Savana had been passing pills.
i like the tablet because it is useful during class. I follow the slide shows on it and I post comments.
I rather have the ipad because its esier to use and the screen is nicer. The tablet sometimes doesn’t let me log on and it freezes a lot. iPad please!!!
