4 Constitution Day 2015! 800th Anniversary of Magna Carta This documentary explores Magna Carta, one of the most important documents in the history of democracy. A declaration of rights by English barons who demanded the monarchy recognize their rights in a written document and disseminate them to all freemen, Magna Carta was the inspiration and historical precedent for the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and its Bill of Rights. Habeas Corpus: The Guantanamo Cases One of our oldest human rights, habeas corpus safeguards individual freedom by preventing unlawful or arbitrary imprisonment. This 25-minute documentary examines habeas corpus and the separation of powers in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks as the Supreme Court tried to strike a balance between the president s duty to protect the nation and the constitutional protection of civil liberties. The video explores this struggle through four major Guantanamo cases: Hamdi v. Rumsfeld (2004), Rasul v. Bush (2004), Hamdan v. Rumsfeld (2006) and Boumediene v. Bush (2008). Available online at AnnenbergClassroom.org
5 Interactive Games on the Constitution That s Your Right How well do your students know the individual freedoms that the Bill of Rights guarantees? Our fun, online card game for middle and high school students can be played individually or in a multiplayer mode. To win, players must understand different constitutional concepts from the right against self-incrimination to freedom of the press and how they apply in different scenarios. First Amendment: Tinker v. Des Moines Based on Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (1969), a landmark case about students right to free speech, this game launches students on a journey to the U.S. Supreme Court. Along the way are mini-games and challenges that teach about the First Amendment, the Tinker case, legal concepts such as precedents, relevant vocabulary, and how the federal courts work. The Constitutional Convention Travel back to 1787 and take part in the Constitutional Convention as the Founding Fathers struggle to decide how the young nation will be governed. Explore how very different men representing their states conflicting demands created a bicameral legislature and three branches of government.
