Landmark Supreme Court Cases 311

############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_cy_ueZoX8

PowerPoint available at: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/S... • Video edited in 2024 removing two cases no longer on the Civics EOC. • This lesson teaches students about the landmark US Supreme Court Cases: Marbury v. Madison, Plessy v. Ferguson, Brown v. Board of Education, Gideon v. Wainwright, Miranda v. Arizona, In re Gault, Tinker v. Des Moines, Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, and United States v. Nixon. Each case is examined with a description of the rights involved and the impact of the cases on the United States. The lesson begins with Marbury v. Madison and the importance this case had on establishing the Supreme Court’s power of Judicial Review. Students will also learn how this case established the job of the judicial branch in interpreting the law and examining them against the US Constitution which Chief Justice John Marshall declared to be the “supreme law of the land.” Next students will learn about the 14th Amendment cases of Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education. They will learn that the 14th Amendment clause of “equal protection under the law” allows citizens to challenge laws that violate their rights. Students will be exposed to the impact these cases had on segregation in America. The look at In re’ Gualt shows students how even juveniles are entitled to due process rights to have an attorney – 6th Amendment – to face one’s accuser – 6th Amendment – and to remain silent – 5th Amendment. The 1st Amendment free speech cases of Tinker v. Des Moines and Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier will show students how they have free speech protections at school (Tinker v. Des Moines), but how those rights can be limited (Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier.) In the US v. Nixon and Bush v. Gore students will learn about how the Supreme Court has gotten involved in questions of Executive Presidential Power – US v. Nixon and the impact this case had on the rule of law and presidential elections – Bush v. Gore. Finally students will be exposed to the debate of gun control and 2nd Amendment protections in DC v. Heller. • Like most of the videos on Mr. Raymond’s Civics EOC Academy this video ends with a review “quiz.” Remember that the PowerPoint in this video as well as a variety of lesson plans and activities are available at Teachers Pay Teachers. • Mr. Raymond’s Civics E.O.C. Academy was designed for students taking the Florida Civics End-of-Course (EOC) Exam. However, as many states are implementing Civics Exams, these videos will work for all students of Civics, US Government, and US History. Currently students have to pass a civics state exam in order to graduate in Idaho, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Arizona, North Dakota, Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Utah. These videos look at all of the civics benchmarks that will be tested on most state civics exams. • As a civics teacher I have often looked for civics YouTube video clips to show my students. I hope these videos will serve as a supplement to lessons for civics teachers, US history teachers, US government teachers and their students. While they might be a little basic for AP Government students, they could serve as a refresher of basic concepts and content. I have also thought that these videos could help those who are going to take the naturalization test to become US Citizens. I have also been reached by parents whose children are taking Florida Virtual School’s (FLVS) Civics class. • All content in this video is for educational purposes only… **For noncommercial, educational, and archival purposes under Law of Fair Use as provided in section 107 of the US copyright law.
