Understanding Judicial Review: Marbury v. Madison and Its Constitutional Impact

This warm-up explores the landmark Supreme Court case, Marbury v. Madison, which established the doctrine of judicial review, granting the Supreme Court the authority to interpret the Constitution. When a law is declared unconstitutional, it means it violates the Constitution, rendering it void. The activity encourages discussion on John Marshall's pivotal role and the implications of judicial review, as well as engages students in reflecting on facts about this influential case and Jefferson's presidency through relevant vocabulary words.
