Justices Ruth and Sonia
This cluster is dedicated to Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsberg. There are two distinct yet related MOTIVATOR MAPS. The first focuses on the Supreme Court cases every teenager should know, as well as suggesting 2 children books about these two gifted women, which are suited to younger students. The underlying concept and value of fairness is what connects all the material. The second map offers an opportunity for students to explore their own leadership styles and then apply them in a job interview challenge. Sonia and Ruth certainly did well in their Supreme Court interviews! Here’s a chance for your students to practice interviewing to earn their own dream job.
