Program on understanding the 8th amendment at Kenton HS

Ohio Northern University education faculty member Kevin Cordi and Kenton High School teacher Christina Cross will help KHS students understand the Eight Amendment, which deals with cruel and unusual punishment, and the death penalty through “ensemble storytelling on Feb. 7 and Feb. 8 at Kenton High School.

This unique approach relies on the role-playing, in which the students will take on the roles of individuals in the process, such as lawyers and guards. In this way, the students more deeply experience the topic being discussed. The students are enrolled in American Government and American Politics classes taught by Cross.
