1. Why was Joseph Fredrick suspended?
2. Who suspended Fredrick?
3. How did the Supreme Court rule and why?
4. If you were writing the decision in this case, how would you decide and why?
After you answer, let’s discuss as a class!
Now that we have discussed the case as a class, would you still decide the case the same way? Why or why not?
QUICK REVIEWWhat are the Bill of Rights?
Why did the Anti-Federalists insist on the inclusion of the Bill of Rights when the Constitution was ratified?
From whom do the Bill of Rights protect our freedoms from?
What if the Federalists won the argument? How could or would American society look today if the Bill of Rights never found its way into the Constitution?
Do you think American citizens take freedoms for granted? Why or why not?
THE FIRST AMENDMENTWhat are the 5 basic freedoms granted to citizens under the First Amendment?
THINK-PAIR-SHARE: please find a partner in another part of the room and respond the following two questions:
*Are these freedoms absolute/unlimited? Explain your response in at least 3 sentences. You may use examples to illustrate your argument.
*What do you think TIME, PLACE, and MANNER restrictions are in the context of the First Amendment? Come up with some examples?
RELIGIONFreedom of religion can be broken down into two categories:
1. Free Exercise:
2. Establishment Clause:
Activity: Get into groups of 3, read the following scenarios, decide whether or not they violate the First Amendment. Be ready to explain why.
• The Church of Satan wants to use animal sacrifice as part of its religious ceremonies.
• The Hatachi Tribe uses peyote as part of its religious ceremonies.
