Wednesday, 2 December

Classes began with reviewing what experts say the various amendments mean using the videos from the Annenberg Institute.

Class reviewed the seven study questions from the November 30th and December 2nd study guides.

The class also reviewed the difference between "Civil Liberties" and "Civil Rights" laws.

Students were given a handout on this news story Satanic group reveals crowdfunded monument for Oklahoma State Capitol and after reading and thinking about the story, it was used to discuss the 1st Amendment issues relating to church and state.

If time remains, the class took a quiz and discussed the results based on this information: What Americans get wrong: survey reveals biggest misconceptions
