It’s essential that young people develop empathy for those who are different to them. This resource examines the short story of a teenage boy who kept his LGBTQ+ identity a secret from even his closest friends out of fear of being rejected and losing them. He eventually musters the courage to reveal his only secret to his best friend Jacob. To both Ethan and the reader's surprise, Jacob's reaction and response leaves readers feeling inspired and better understanding the positive impact empathy and a willingness to listen and act can be on an LGBTQ+ individual.

Many LGBTQ+ students will find themselves struggling with the unknown. The way in which students respond to LGBTQ+ identities and relationships could provide key support and understanding for their peers. Within our classrooms, we may have teens who are discovering their own sexual identity. This resource, and story, highlights positive ways that students might respond to their LGBTQ+ peers.

Through reading the passage and delving into reflection questions, your students will learn important ways to show empathy and support for others. Students will also recognize and examine examples of unsupportive behaviors and actions that can be hurtful to LGBTQ+ friends who fear coming out or just came out. They will make connections between these key ideas and the passage under study. They will also learn about why many LGBTQ+ teens hide or disguise their sexual orientation and/or gender identity for and brainstorm healthy coping strategies to help navigate LGBTQ+ conflicts related to coming out. Importantly, the anticipation guide includes ideas related to the story to help build background knowledge and to discuss related themes.

It’s essential that young people develop empathy for those who are different to them. This resource examines the short story of a teen couple dating over summer break. Over the summer, Ava, girl who is not "out" yet, starts dating Bella, who is confidently "out" with her LGBTQ status.

Fearful that she may be outed by this person upon returning to school, the story follows Ava’s journey.

It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.

*************************************

There can be many challenges that students face when dealing with their sexual orientation. This packet of work presents students with a realistic story of a male teen struggling with accepting his own identity. Wary that he may be judged, shunned and not accepted, the LGBTQ+ teen describes the immense pressure he is under. Your students will discuss and unpack what is means for some teens to be gay in an environment that doesn’t support homosexuality and diversity.

Students who identify as being part of the LGBTQ+ community may find themselves hiding who they are from their peers and family. For some students, they may be wrestling with conflicting feelings of wanting to come out. However, some may choose not to out of fear - just like the narrator in the reading passage.

Through a variety of activities, students are guided to explore the concepts within the text. An anticipation guide helps learners to consider their current thoughts and beliefs surrounding the experiences of LGBTQ+ people. Students are led through reflections and prompts that encourage empathetic thinking. As teachers, we see the value in equipping our students with the coping strategies they need to deal with their relationships and friendships. These activities encourage social and emotional learning that they can use to understand the difficulties that others may face in their daily lives.

This resource allows for courageous conversations on this sensitive topic through the use of a reading passage and anticipation guide. Similar to viewing a case study, your students may find they can relate to aspects of the story. For other students, the passage may spark feelings of empathy for the LGBTQ+ teen described.

********************************

Learning and talking about the LGBTQ+ community is important for our education. Educating students about the LGBTQ+ community can greatly enhance their understanding on how to properly interact and appreciate their fellow peers. Having that knowledge prevents them from judging others. 

This LGBTQ+ Scenario Packet provides opportunities for students to work through how they would handle particular situations regarding gender, sexuality, and LGBTQ issues. This resource features 44 highly relevant SCENARIOS that students can relate to and use to help them practice navigating conflicts related to gender, sexuality, and LGBTQ issues.

These scenarios provide real world situations and challenges that students (or teens) have encountered or may encounter in the future. Students will think through and game plan the different ways to handle the difficult situations presented in the scenarios. You can have students work on these scenarios independently, in pairs, or in groups. Instruct them to brainstorm and talk through different options, or possible solutions, to the problems.

Some of the topics covered in these scenarios include:

⭐ Overcoming challenges

⭐ LGBTQ alliance

⭐ Bullying

⭐ Rejection

⭐ Fear of "Coming out"

⭐ Acceptance

⭐ Boundaries

⭐ Sexuality

⭐ Relationships

⭐ Gender neutral language

❤️ Many LGBTQ+ students will find themselves struggling with the unknown. The way in which students respond to LGBTQ+ identities and relationships could provide key support and understanding for their peers. Within our classrooms, we may have teens who are discovering their own sexual identity. Their journeys become easier when they are surrounded by supportive people who demonstrate social awareness, kindness, acceptance, understanding, and most importantly, empathy. These scenarios can help students build awareness of the challenges and struggles many of their fellow LGBTQ+ peers face.❤️

This resource includes both print and digital versions (with text boxes already created)! You can assign scenarios to students in person or remotely – either way works!

RESOURCE ITEMS

This resource includes 44 LGBTQ+ Scenario Task Cards with and without questions (in colors Rainbow and B&W). The Task Cards include highly relevant scenarios that students can relate to followed by questions. Also included are the same scenarios without questions, so you can generate your OWN questions and activities for the scenarios! You can use the B&W Task Cards to print out on ANY color paper!

✅ These Task Cards can be used as part of a larger lesson, in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! These Task Cards contain the same scenarios in the Scenario Worksheets.

✅ You can print the Task Cards out on gloss paper or regular paper and laminate. You may also organize them in a binder ring.

***************************************

How/When To Use the Scenario Task Cards

• Role-Playing: The scenarios provide students with opportunities to discuss, understand, and role play the variety of effective ways they can navigate challenges related to LGBTQ. You can also have each pair read their scenario and then role-play the scenario in front of the class, trying to find a positive resolution to the situation. Students can brainstorm many ways to communicate feelings and boundaries. Each pair also watches another pair’s role-play as commenters: they have the power to freeze the action of the role-play and make comments and suggestions to the role-players to guide them towards a positive resolution. You can use the Task Cards with no questions to generate your OWN questions and activities!

• Icebreaker: This can be a great way to start a meeting, training session, or team-building activity. It’s also a great way to get students to get to know each other and how they would deal with certain situations. It may assist you in getting them to buy into the purpose of an upcoming activity or lesson.

• Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes then perform the skits for the class.

• Writing Response: Students can be given a scenario to read and then write their responses. Students can swap papers with a partner who then reads their responses and determines whether they agree/disagree with their responses/approaches to these real-life scenarios/situations.

• Discussion: Students can discuss the Scenario Task Cards in groups or whole class.
