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. While on a date, they are spotted by another girl from school who witnesses their close connection and interactions. Fearful that she may be outed by this person upon returning to school, the story follows Ava’s journey.
Many LGBTQ+ students will find themselves struggling with the unknown. The way in which students respond to lesbian 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 the benefits and risks of being an ally to LGBTQ+ individuals. They will also learn about the gravity of their own actions as they discuss the consequences of outing someone. Importantly, the anticipation guide includes ideas related to the story to help build background knowledge and to discuss related themes. This is a timely resource that assists students as they consider how they can show empathy towards others.
