Are They Guaranteed?

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is designed to guide students through a basic understanding of civil rights. It asks students to define what a “civil right” is, explain how civil rights are guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution, list some of the civil rights that U.S. citizens possess, and reflect on which civil right they believe is the most important and why. The inclusion of these questions suggests a focus on the legal and personal aspects of civil rights, and a logo with a ballot box implies a connection to civic duties and participation.

This worksheet aims to educate students on the fundamental aspects of civil rights within the context of the United States. It prompts them to engage with the Constitution, encouraging them to think about how it protects individual freedoms and liberties. By listing specific civil rights and reflecting on their importance, students are likely to deepen their understanding of how these rights impact daily life and the functioning of democracy. The final question encourages personal reflection, prompting students to consider the value and priority of different civil rights in a societal context.
