Your May 2021 Teacher's Guide
We can barely believe this year is coming to a close—and we’re sure you’re feeling the same. We’ve been awed by your resilience, dedication, and perseverance under extremely challenging circumstances, and we hope you take a moment to congratulate yourselves on making it through the craziness of this past year. We’re excited to partner with you again next fall—fingers crossed that things are closer to normal by then!
Here are some exciting ideas we’re working on for the fall—whatever it looks like:
1) MORE SELF-GUIDED LEARNING TOOLS
including Google Slide Deck Lesson Plans and pre-reading questions.
2) NEW VIDEOS
featuring inspiring teens making a difference in their communities.
3) STREAMLINED LESSON PLANS AND SKILL SHEETS
to give you more of the teaching supports you want, and less of what you don’t need.
Got an idea for how we can help you navigate next year? Please drop me a line. I hope you have a safe, restful, and relaxing summer—you absolutely deserve it
Warmly,
Jennie Yabroff, Executive Editor
