You spent block day learning about 4 Types of Law (this is where you take a moment and pause to recall the names of them in your mind). Today you will learn where laws come from or better called "The Sources of Law". You will need to be able to understand the difference between "Types of Law" and "Sources of Law". First we will assure you have the types of law down pat! |
Task I: What About the Real World? Now that you have a really solid understanding of WHAT the different types of laws are from Block Day activity, Mrs. Furgi wants you to apply this knowledge to the real world! Around the room/ on your desk you will find real news articles. With your team SKIM the article and try to decipher what type (or types) of laws these articles are related too. On the provided post-it note, write the type of law you think is represented in this article. Links to all article can also be found under Task III from yesterday's posting. |
