This video is a great depiction of how easy it is to assume something about someone at the surface level and not knowing the depth of a person and what they may be struggling with, and is also a great tool to teach students to discuss and respond on the importance of disability inclusion (the video features a deaf girl and paralyzed boy who have a misunderstanding because they don't know of the other's disability).

Age Range: Grades 7-12.

Teacher Vision: Social Justice Literacy 

# data[].attributes.body
TeacherVision is a website dedicated to research based lesson planning and teaching resources for educators, and from this website I chose their book guide and teaching resources for the book The Hate You Give a book that a cooperating teacher I was studying under had paired with To Kill A Mockingbird to analyze the limits of reading a story told only from the perspective of its white characters when compared with this more timely novel.

Age Range: Grades 9-12.

The scholarly article "Addressing Religious Diversity through Children’s Literature: An “English as a Foreign Language” Classroom in Israel" has a lot of great research on using critical literacy to help combat religious bias in the classroom, and according to the researcher the effective practices she used included the following: "For enacting my critical literacy curriculum, I used multicultural children’s literature, asked challenging questions, and invited students to express their own
perceptions of texts and reality through different types of written, oral, and artistic tasks"

Age Range: Grades K-6.

A website called Futures Initiatives.cim has many great general content and lesson plans for educators, including a lesson designed around teaching a multicultural perspective by splitting students into groups that take on the identity of a country and stage a kind of United Nations where they negotiate and learn more about each other to overcome bias and stereotypes of different countries, cultures, and identities.

Age Range: 9-12 Grade.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has helpful teaching resources to help combat biases attitudes and socially/culturally instilled prejudices, and through their Teaching Tolerance resource project for teachers, there is a helpful lesson plan for students where students write journal entries from the perspective of a student with a disability and come up with scenarios where these students are discriminated against as well as possible insults towards them and come up with counterpoints to and solutions to these biased perspectives.

Age Range: 7-12 grade.

Project Implicit provides an assessment people can take to help them determine any unconscious biases, and this would be great for high school students to analyze themselves and reflect on their current biases to see how important it is to recognise eliminating bias and unconscious bias as an ongoing and lifelong process.

Age Range: A more advance 11-12 class.

Breaking the Prejudice is a website originating from Ball State University that pools together many resources for educators to use in combating the social and cultural biases that infiltrate classrooms from the surrounding communities, and I chose their group gender bias lesson and activity that has students take an inventory of toys and media they experienced growing up and analyzing how they were marketed with a gender bias that was instilled in them.

Age Range: This is another lesson meant to be tailored to a wide range of age groups, but I would use this for a 7-8 class to get them thinking about bias.

The 1619 project from the New York Times was an ambitious project meant to challenge the historical narratives taught in schools that tend to minimilize marginalized voices and the role slavery played in the foundation of our country that extends to the present day, and the Pulitzer Center design a curriculum around this for students, and I chose a lesson that would be great for high school students for them to choose a creative pics like a poem or story to compare and contrast with a piece of literature or article from the project and make a visual presentation using key quotes to teach the importance of combating racial bias.

Age Group: All ages it says in the material, but I would use it for 7-8 grades.
