3Rs Teaching Tips: Lesson One
Hello, 3Rs volunteers. Please read and review the following important information regarding Lesson One - this Friday, Oct. 9.
NEW CURRICULUM THIS YEAR - RETURNING VOLUNTEERS PLEASE NOTE Returning volunteers should please note that we will be teaching from our NEW curriculum this year. If you have not done so already, you will need to replace your 2014-15 Instructors Guide with the NEW 2015-16 Instructors Guide available online here and distributed at all orientation sessions this fall. As a reminder, the new lessons reflect the fact that we have changed from 10th grade U.S. History classes and will now be matched with 11th grade U.S. Government classes. The lessons are designed to build and expand on the 3Rs curriculum that most of this year's students experienced last year as 10th graders.
Lesson One: Introduction to 3Rs Lesson One starts by showing the 3Rs video shown last year, then focuses on the importance of having career goals and taking affirmative steps to achieving them. The Lesson reflects that we are working with most of the same students we had last year, including a focus on what the students that had 3Rs last year have done during the summer toward furthering their career plans.
