This session will be an informational session all about ThinkLaw. ThinkLaw is a critical thinking program that involves real life court cases. Each lesson is created for you and includes critical thinking, questioning, and writing built in. It is highly interactive and students love it!
This is part two to the morning's informational session about ThinkLaw. We will go through a court case as if you were the students so you can see how these lessons can be easily integrated into your classrooms! Come prepared to learn, collaborate, and have a great time!
