Description

Do your high school students hesitate to speak up and take charge of their learning? Then you need this NO-PREP interactive Google Slides presentation to teach your students about self-advocacy -- a very useful soft skill for college and career success!

This full lesson covers what it means to be a self-advocate and why it's so important for college and career readiness. This is a must-teach lesson for all students, but especially for students traditionally underrepresented in higher education (e.g., AVID students), English Learners, and students needing accommodations!

⭐️ By the end of this lesson, you'll have a class of confident, outspoken, and unstoppable students!

⭐️ WHAT'S INCLUDED (a complete lesson that uses the 5E Learning Cycle!):

  • Engage: Question to hook students.
  • Explore: Question to activate prior knowledge and the chance to ask questions before getting into the lesson.
  • Explain: In this lesson, students learn answers to the following questions:
    *What Is Self-Advocacy?
    *What Are Examples of Self-Advocacy?
    *Why Is Self-Advocacy Important?
    *Who Is Self-Advocacy Especially Important For?
    *What Are Self-Advocacy Skills?
    *How Do You Self-Advocate?
  • Elaborate/Extend: The extension part of the lesson includes discussion questions and an editable assignment asking students to practice what they learned (Teacher Note: this is the only editable part of the presentation so that you can change the extension activity as you see fit; other ideas are included!).
  • Evaluate: Reflection questions at the end of the presentation.
  • Extra: Ideas for engaging students and extending the lesson further!

⭐️ This presentation can be used with face-to-face instruction, distance learning, OR a hybrid approach in any secondary class. You can present the lesson to the whole class or have students review it themselves in small groups! This is the perfect lesson for a middle or high school AVID, advisory, or language arts class, or really any college and career readiness class!

⭐️ This product is a COMPLETE LESSON in one place (similar to a Hyperdoc, which takes students through the learning cycle in one doc or slide deck using hyperlinks and other media). Perfect for using as a differentiated, self-paced, student-centered lesson and/or whole class presentation!

⭐️ The time it takes for the entire lesson will vary depending on how much time you allow for group discussions, follow-up class sharing, and extension activities. You could spend as little as 60 minutes on this lesson, if that's all the time you have, or one to three whole classes or more if you include some of the suggested extension activities. For ESL classes, you may need more time.

Note: You can skip or delete any of the slides you don't want to use and add your own notes to any of the slides.
