Each year MSBA coordinates the Fifth Grade Mock Trial program throughout Maine. Classes are provided with teacher materials and scripts. The scripts are based on nursery rhymes and fairy tales. Two volunteer attorney advisors work with each class to assist with pre-trial work and to advise at the final performance. Trials take place in the Spring and require considerable advance preparation on the part of participating schools.
Script materials are also available for in-classroom mock trial programs.
Other scripts will become available soon. All rights reserved.
