This Week at SchoolhouseTeachers ~ What’s New in Mock Trial and on This Month’s Menu

I’m going to let our Mock Trial teacher, Deborah Burton, tell you about her Mock Trial class—and why it’s not just for students who plan to become lawyers someday. Here’s what Deborah has to say:

“In this class, I will help you teach a mock trial class to a group of students or an individual student. You will be amazed at how fascinating young people find legal concepts! Through these lessons, students will learn a great deal about the U.S. legal system through different cases, information on the court system, and more. Culminating with a mock trial allows students to actively engage with the material they have learned.

“The vision for this mock trial class is that students’ knowledge of God and His world will grow through study of the legal system. Their reading comprehension, logic/critical thinking, persuasive argumentation, writing, research, and public speaking skills will be strengthened. A mock trial class teaches important information about the judicial branch of our government, as well as honing these skills every person needs.”

Trying to figure out what to feed the family? Have you looked through the recipes on This Month’s Menu? Maybe you would enjoy some Shepherd’s Pie or Summer Grill. Perhaps a Yummy Strawberry Dessert or Grape Salad is the answer you’re searching for. Stop by and see what mouth-watering recipes are just waiting to be printed!
