From iCivics’ Landmark Library

Students will:

• Describe the Commerce Clause and the Supremacy Clause, and their effect
• Identify the main arguments put forth in the case.
• Describe the Supreme Court’s decision and analysis.
• Identify the impact of the Court’s decision.
• Determine whether arguments from the case support Gibbons or Ogden

“This library of mini-lessons targets a variety of landmark cases from the United States Supreme Court. Each mini-lesson includes a one-page reading and a one-page activity, and is appropriate for a variety of uses. Unlike the iCivics lesson plans, these mini-lessons are designed for students to complete independently without the need for teacher direction. However, they also make great teacher-directed lessons or even class conversation-starters, and multiple mini-lessons can be combined to make a longer lesson.”
