Lesson Topic
State Sovereignty: Definition & Challenges
Lesson Outline
State sovereignty is the power that states have to make their own laws and to be free from federal interference in some respects. It is the result of federalism, or when a system has two levels of government. This type of dual government is largely tied to the 10th Amendment. The 10th Amendment states, ''The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.'' One way that federalism has impacted people's lives is through the police powers, or the power that states have to create and enforce laws relating to the safety, health, and welfare of the public.

Lesson Comments
Bella is not always visible during her remote lessons. She is actually using her phone and not her lap-top. She has said her lap-top doesn't work. She uses her cell phone which is not conducive to learning. I can't see Bella and she hasn't been able to see me for the last two days. After sharing this with Dr. Pat this AM, he said we could send a lap-top from school for Bella to use. I gently brought this subject up with Bella today, explaining that she needs a better device for remote learning. She said she doesn't need a lap-top from school - that her lap-top actually does work, it just isn't charged and she prefers her phone. Later in the lesson, Bella asked me to check if it was an Orange Week for break from 11:45 - 12:00pm. I confirmed that it is and Bella felt that she should be able to take this break from home to go to out for lunch. I encouraged her to stay with me, but she resisted and said, "No, Bari. Just because I'm home, I stay on top of these things." (meaning break time). I adore Bella, but I am concerned about some unhealthy, non-productive habits that are escalating - during her junior year of high school. Any suggestions for how we may collaborate and help Bella? Thank you in advance! Bari
