Twenty activities and seven educational objectives help teachers inform students of their rights as citizens. Each objective is demonstrated through the use of one or more activities that help students experience the learning for themselves. Each activity consists of teaching procedures and student handouts. Section 1 is an examination of the Bill of Rights. Activities 1 through 3 define rights and give an overview of the Bill of Rights. Activity 4 discusses important U.S. Supreme Court decisions supporting constitutionally guaranteed rights. Religious freedom is the focus of activities 5 and 6, and activity 7 explores the rights of free speech. Activity 8 examines the balance between the public's right to know and other interests through a discussion of court cases pertaining to freedom of the press. The rights of peaceful assembly and demonstration are discussed in activity 9. Activities 10 and 11 look at the rights of the accused, emphasizing the protection against self-incrimination. Violations of human rights and the responsibilities of citizens that accompany civil rights are the focus of activities 11 and 12.
