Learning Objectives

  • Identify rights guaranteed by the Bill of Rights and the 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments
  • Recognize complaints not involving constitutional rights
  • Analyze legal conflicts and identify which amendments apply to which right
  • Describe and define constitutional rights

Overview

Invite your students to step into their new law firm, which specializes in constitutional law.

In Do I Have a Right?, students decide if potential clients have had their constitutional rights violated, match them with the best lawyer, and try to win their case in court. The more clients students serve, the faster their law firm grows!

Students can play two ways:

  • The full edition covers rights found across all constitutional amendments.
  • The Bill of Rights edition focuses on the rights addressed in the first ten amendments.

Get ready to answer the question: Do I have a right?
