INTRODUCTION

This lesson helps California teens understand real-world laws that come with adulthood, including signing leases, driving, voting, digital privacy, and relationships. Created using content from the California Lawyers Foundation's print guide, it's a practical, life-skills-focused session led by a visiting judge, with topics that can be tailored to fit your class.

RESOURCES FOR TEACHERS

Prepare your students in advance by introducing them to the subject of this lesson. By preparing them in advance, the judge will have more time to go more deeply into the critical points while also leaving time for questions.
