I agree with the comment of letting children be children until they reach puberty. Some reach it earlier then others. Then the parents should teach the physical ,moral and ethical parts of sex and gender. The teachers at school help teach the anatomical and physical aspects of biology and sexual reproduction. Social science teachers help with the social aspects of sex and gender. We as teachers should always focus on teaching children how to think, not what to think. If we start preaching our own doctrine then we can be the cause of problems not the solution.

Any sex talk in elementary school is a definite NO

smart

I only see such discussions in the classroom leading to more confusion, especially in students who are quite young.

I totally agree… I think it’s incredibly inappropriate to discuss a gender, sex or anything of the sorts to elementary students… Especially when they haven’t even reached puberty yet. It opens up Pandora’s box… Reading, writing, math, science, social studies that should be the focus… And how to get along with each other. I don’t know how sexual orientation, gender and all of this fits in with academics… 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't ask neutral questions (students don't really learn much from those) but I always make sure to present and welcome all sides equally (except when discussing human rights--there's only one side when it comes to bigotry).

We are exploring having a third party come in and assess our I&D efforts across our company. We have many locations across North America. Is anyone aware of an entity who does this? We have found questionnaires through target organizations and have done anonymous employee surveys but are hoping to find someone who can do an assessment for gender, minorities, disabilities, 2SLGBTQ+, etc. and provide feedback on the actual employee experience and where we may have blind spots.

Anyone use edgenuity? I'm starting Monday with students, never been trained, no guidance. Don't know how to set expectations if I don't know. ice breaker ideas? I'm not in my classroom.. media center.

What do you think:

Teachers should/should not discuss their opinions and ideas around sexuality, gender, and religion with students.

I am a middle school social studies teacher and my husband is a high school art teacher. He has been an art teacher for a very long time and he’s not super proficient with Google classroom but I am. I have been helping him with lesson online resources & creating hyper docs for the lessons. He is struggling with the students not having a lot of supplies at home and how to have them create multiple day art pieces.  he teaches at a low income area, how is everyone handling supplies to students?
