From the Courtroom to the Classroom: Presentations and Materials

Welcome teachers, judges, and attorneys to the Courtroom to Classroom program. This program brings judge and attorney teams to middle or high school classrooms where they engage students in PowerPoint-driven lessons and moot court activities. The curriculum materials are designed to support the 8th grade U.S. History, 11th grade U.S. History, or 12th grade Government course. The judge/attorney team visits the same class two times during the school year.

Our website has numerous resources to help you...

• ...schedule a visit. Judges and attorneys can use our online scheduling tool to find a classroom to visit. Teachers interested in having their class participate can complete our registration form.
   
• ...prepare for your upcoming visit. Judge and attorney teams can access instructions as well as download presentations & handouts. Teachers should read through our instructions for teachers.
   
• ...complete program evaluation form. This helps to provide CRF with feedback and documentation. There is a seperate form for the judges & attorneys and for the teacher.
