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.
