For all of you out there convinced that there is a liberal conspiracy in our public schools, I thought you might find it interesting to see that there is one major media outlet that is not afraid to offer 2A material for teachers to use:
I used this lesson plan to teach my Senior Civics class about the 2A (Part of my Bill of Rights unit), and I thought it was very good. I even had the dad of one of my students stop and chat with me for quite a while after school one day about how happy he was to hear that his kid was getting some education in this area, which quickly turned into a discussion on Jim Zumbo. It might also interest you to know that ALL my students, and all of the staff know that I am zealously 2A. I made sure to make it clear that I was OK with them disagreeing with me, and they liked the fact that I made my biases clear. In any event, it led to some good discussion, and it was a pretty good lesson.
