I teach 9th graders, who aren't always the most sensitive. Teaching tolerance offers lesson plans that I can use to address this issue while incorporating my history curriculum.

I enjoy Teaching Tolerance because it is taking a prominent role in today's society. It has up to date topics and events that can weigh on people's minds. These topics can lead to in depth discussion by the students and digesting difficult topics leads to greater learning. The students can learn how to discuss delicate subjects while providing ideas to combat harmful and toxic behavior.

The overall product seems to be a great tool in the classroom. Teaching online etiquette is critical and would provide a sensitivity to other students and the overall learning environment. I feel it is important that students learn to develop community.

I have been using materials from Teaching Tolerance since its inception, my only complaint is that its information is vastly underused by educators and needs to be used more as a resource particularly in teaching about civil rights, current events, mental and social health , etc.
