Rationale:
The material included above may be utilized in the classroom at almost any level, from elementary to twelfth grade. In the lower grades one might discuss the American flag, the pledge of allegiance, and begin to introduce concepts of American government.
The material might be used in a twelfth grade advance placement class as well. The teacher might choose to discuss specifically the technicalities in Marbury v. Madison, introducing vocabulary such as original jurisdiction, appellate jurisdiction, writ of mandamus, etc.
This unit is intended to be used at the middle school level.
