Mock Trial in Mrs. Lucas' Social Studies Class!
Today, many our 6th graders stepped into the courtroom for a mock trial inspired by The Three Little Pigs. Students took on roles to either prosecute or defend the Big Bad Wolf, showcasing their understanding of the legal systems.
A big thank you to the Swain County Administrative Office for allowing us to use the courtroom—this real-world setting made the experience even more impactful!
