Workshop Overview Review research Clarify concepts Define vocabulary Focus on instruction Discuss special considerations Provide resources

Why is Inclusivity Important? In the past year: 85% of LGBTQ students were verbally harassed 65% heard homophobic remarks like “fag” or “dyke” frequently/often In the past month: 30% missed at least 1 day of school *Source: GLSEN’s biennial National School Climate Survey of 7,800 middle & high school students

Data Shows School-based Supports* Make a Difference Supportive Educators Knowledgeable Intentional Inclusive Curriculum Language Examples *vital for transforming school climate and helping all students thrive!

Think, pair, share: Which terms are you familiar with? Which are new to you?

Key Concepts Sex vs. Gender Identity vs. Expression

Start in center work our way up & then down Note spectrum – not binary Bottom line -- genitals gender)

Essential Vocabulary LGBTQ+ Cis/transgender Non-binary (“enby”) Heteronormativity

Instructional Use Example: Additional Activity for Day 1 Preferred Names Gender Neutral Pronouns Example: Distribute Index Cards – *ALL* students write preferred name, pronouns, favorite color, favorite game, etc.

Tips & Tricks Avoid the binary! Create safe spaces visually Class, Everyone, Folks, Friends, Peeps... Create safe spaces visually Stickers, posters, flyers, quotes Check examples Parents/guardians/family; partner/sweetie/significant other

Considerations for Health Teachers Anatomy vs. identity parts person Sequencing – address what applies to everyone first Materials – beware heteronormativity!

Considerations for PE Teachers What is school district policy? Locker rooms/restrooms Instructions for activities Team participation Uniforms
