These lesson plans are reproduced in this book in units that explore: (1) constitutional issues in U.S. history; (2) contemporary constitutional/legal issues; (3) constitutional issues in school settings; and (4) approaches to teaching about the U.S. Constitution. A table cross-references the lessons by subject areas and grade levels.
