PREP NEEDED

For older learners, the volunteer may choose to dive more deeply into a few cases instead of covering all of them.

The oral arguments posted for each case provide audio of actual argument. For example https://www.oyez.org/cases/2006/06-278 You may choose to play one to demonstrate the pace and intensity of a Supreme Court argument. In Morse v. Frederick, Starr references Tinker. These could support a discussion on precedence.
