In this no-prep, editable lesson, students work in pairs to explore the Roman Republic and the Laws of the Twelve Tables by comparing Roman government and legal principles to those of the United States.
The slides AND the student handout are editable!
Here’s how the lesson proceeds:
=> Do Now, short response question
=> Slide presentation with guided notes (students write what’s underlined on the slides in the space provided)
=> Students analyze Roman laws, discuss and record their knowledge of U.S. government as a comparison
=> Exit question requires high-level thinking
=> An ANSWER KEY is included
Make copies of the day’s student handout and you’re done. Or, if you’d like, put your own spin on any of the lessons. It’s easy because IT’S ALL EDITABLE.
