Notes:
1. Make a bullet-point list of the possible reasons why one might oppose the death penalty
2.
Break into 3 groups, sit at different tables. You will all look at arguments against the death penalty.
Go to this website: http://deathpenaltycurriculum.org/node/5
Group 1: read, annotate, and be ready to share the arguments on the 'deterrence' category
Group 2: read, annotate, be ready to share the arguments on the "retribution" category
Group 3: read, annotate, be ready to share the arguments on the "innocence" category.
2. Jigsaw--go and find someone from a different group. Explain your category's arguments and share with them your notes. Ask them to explain their category as well and take down their notes.
