Students will be giving their opinions on a hypothetical case similar to the Tinker v Des Moines case of 1965. Students will apply their opinion than review what the current law or section of court case states.

This activity is not only 3 pages long of awesomeness, it is also easily adaptable to a Kagan Structure, Cooperative Learning Groups, guided discussion, or independent work depending on the needs of your students, time frame, or requirements of your school. Scenario: The Case of the Blue Arm Bands at HMMS The students sued the school district for violating their First Amendment rights. A group of students in the schools after-school Civics Club at Harns Marsh Middle School were concerned about the United States’ involvement in the nuclear arms race. To show their support for peace and nuclear disarmament (reduction of weapons), they decided to attend school for one week wearing blue armbands. Hearing of the plan, and fearing that school would be disrupted, the principal, Dr. Luckey, made a rule against wearing armbands. In spite of the rule, some students came to school wearing armbands anyway. Dr. Luckey claimed that they broke school dress code. The students were given OSS (Out Of School Suspension) for 4 days. In return, the students and their parents sued the school district in federal court for violating their First Amendment rights.
