This resource helps educators teach about landmark Supreme Court cases using primary sources from the Library of Congress.
This case pack is about the 1803 case of Marbury v. Madison, which asked: Does the Supreme Court have the power to order Madison to deliver the papers?
It includes a summary of the case written on a middle school level, a glossary, three primary source activities, an essential question analysis, and suggested additional resources.
It also includes a recommended instructor resource: “Teacher Tips for Using Street Law’s Supreme Court Case Packs.” This supporting resource provides middle school teachers with structured, scaffolded approaches for teaching using the case packs.
