³Prison:
Punishment or Party?² (HS)
4Prison
reform is a hot issue today and there is a great deal of conflict over what prisoners'
rights should be. In this project, you will be
exploring the opposing viewpoints on this topic, evaluating
statistics, and reading about life in American prisons. As a team, you will be working to
create a handbook of "Prisoners' Rights" in a
fabled prison. Team members will take the
following roles: victim, prison warden, politician, tax
payer, or prisoner. Though you may have strong
feelings based upon the research you do, your team must reach consensus on the handbook.
