This is a practice space. Use the source cards and the route you choose for the day. Name the source, state a bounded claim, and say what remains unknown. You may draw, move full-word cards, write, dictate, speak or use AAC; all routes ask for the same legal reasoning. You do not need to tell anyone about a personal legal experience. Model bills, places and people are invented. On Days 5 and 10, use the fresh public check file your teacher provides. Keep your first response before seeing feedback.

Day Your question and first response
1 Card A: Is the volunteer's “crime” claim established? Identify one rule maker, one missing legal source and a careful conclusion.
2 Cards A/C: Choose one fair-notice or fair-evidence problem. Name a viewpoint, likely consequence and proportionate improvement.
3 Cards B/F: Put bill, current Act, relevant judgment and rumour in a justified source order; say what source still cannot prove.
4 Cards B/D: Draw or tell a Queensland bill pathway and assign a law-making, administering and interpreting role to the appropriate arm.
5 File J, provided on the check page: decide which assertion is supported; cite one item, one limit and one fair next step. Keep your first answer.
6 Card D: Make one arm-of-government statement and one Commonwealth/state division statement; explain why they are different questions.
7 Cards C/E: Describe a conditional court path; distinguish jurisdiction, precedent and disputed facts; contrast the two broad case-presentation models.
8 Cards C/H: Contrast burden and standard of proof; state an interpretation question and why the supplied clause does not itself create a crime.
9 Card G: State what the 1986 ALRC summary can support, whose present-day voice is missing and how to seek a better source respectfully.
10 File K, provided on the check page: explain the status of a bill, distinguish an allegation from proof and give a sourced, culturally careful next step. Keep your first answer.

Self-check before handing in: Can another person tell which statement is from a source and which is your inference? Have you called a proposal a law, a rule a crime, or an allegation a conviction? If a source is historic, have you dated it? If a source is missing, say so plainly.
