Learn how to use mock trials to bring history and literature to
life! When students take on the roles of lawyers and witnesses in
historical or literary trials, they develop greater investment in
the topics, they learn rigorous close-reading and questioning
techniques, and they are able to deeply explore and reflect upon
themes of justice and responsibility. In this new book from
award-winning teacher David Sherrin, you'll find out how this
lively instructional strategy will make learning a more immersive,
engaging, and memorable experience for your middle school and high
school students. The book includes: a clear how-to guide to get the
most out of mock trials in your class; ready-made units and lessons
to get you started right away, complete with sample scripts,
primary source documents, scaffolding worksheets, and assessment
rubrics; templates and step-by-step instructions to help you design
your own mock trials. The pre-made units, which Sherrin spent years
refining in his classroom, cover historical topics such as the
Nuremberg Trials and the inquisitions of Martin Luther and Galileo.
You'll also find fun and interactive mock trials based on the
literary works The Pearl and To Kill a Mockingbird. These lessons
will help students at all ability levels to become better readers,
public speakers, and critical thinkers. For even more engaging
lessons, try out Sherrin's companion book on role-plays, The
Classes They Remember: Using Role-Plays to Bring Social Studies and
English to Life.
