I don't teach history, but I enjoy including history into my reading and writing lessons. I often bring in aspects of the constitution when we talk about argument. I also have a strong desire to make sure that our students know what their rights are and what they are not. We've done a lot of discussion about the limitations of the rights that students don't completely understand. With this as background knowledge, then we can discuss current events with a better understanding. Because of this, I like to have this as a reference book. I have not used any of the quizzes, and don't plan to. There is a lot of memorization if you use it as an actual learning unit. It's much better to just do as a reading reference.

This book requires too much memorization! Why on earth students want to memorize the order of amendments? Because this book is for young kids, it should be designed story-like. But this book is full of terminologies and even legal terms in Latin. I will not let my children study from this book. It is better for them to study math and science. One thing I like is plain English and easy to understand.
