Establishing claims and counterclaims using relevant issues and corresponding legal and court primary sources is the heart of this game; however, studens should participate in a tutorial and practice round prior to independent play.

How I Use It

In my classroom, this game was used as a means to practice matching and understanding claim and counterclaim in an argument. Initially, I gave a tutorial of the site and provided a paper copy of the plays needed at different rounds in the game. Without the tutorial or handout, students would have been slightly confused regarding how to play and navigate the game.
