Ask Us Anything: Navigating the LGBTQIA+ Evolution

Objective: Teachers will be able to demonstrate understanding of LGTBQIA+ language, pronouns, and challenges that these students face.

Description: Feeling comfortable being uncomfortable. Learning how to make mistakes and grow in the stretch zone when dealing with our gender non-conforming students. This starts with asking questions.

By providing a safe place in the classroom for students who are gender non-conforming, it is possible to have a more worldly experience during class discussion. Otherwise, these students are sometimes withholding valuable insights because they are afraid to speak up.

Advice: Feeling comfortable being uncomfortable. You're in the stretch zone and mistakes will be made.
