Trials Triad Instructions

The Trials Triad activity helps students as they prepare for a mock trial. Students break into triads and take turns presenting different sides of the case, questioning one another, and answering questions from a judge. Each round takes approximately 15–20 minutes, and students rotate through the roles of Plaintiff/Prosecution, Defense, and Judge.
