As I’m preparing for my last few classes and activities with
my students and teachers, I’m chuckling at the contents strewn across the desk (okay, large
table) in my house.
- Colorful lists of emotionally healthy and emotionally unhealthy behaviors
- Boggle and Bananagrams (for the English club that never really materialized)
- Toilet paper
- Hand drawn diagrams of the male and female reproductive systems
- Corresponding labels for above diagrams
- Several books of lifeskills lesson plans
- Hand sanitizer
- A hand made dice that has potential consequences of alcohol abuse (car accident, injury, late for work, etc.)
- Name-tags for a mini camp
- A fly swatter (bc holy moly the bugs lately!)
- A stack of index card sized papers with sticky tack on the back that say things like doctor, nurse, weak, strong, etc, for a lesson on gender
- Various pencils and markers
- A hella lotta sunscreen
- Condoms (male AND female) and a wooden penis
- A loose ball of various colors of embroidery floss for bracelet making
- Scissors, a pocket knife, and string (for making those name-tags)
- Duct tape
- In Her Shoes, an activity to talk about Gender Based Violence
- Chalk
