Character and Consequences
Healthy Choices introduces students
to the foundations of strong,
satisfying relationships. In ten
lessons, teens examine how family
and media shape expectations about
love and life. They discuss positive
dating behaviors, identify and prepare
for potential dangers, explore the
nature of mature behavior, practice
problem solving, and learn other
relevant life skills. A recurring theme
is how teens can make informed
choices that enhance their
relationships, their goals, and how
they live their lives.

All Families Are Different by
Sal Gordon
Is there such a thing as a "normal"
family? Is one family better than another? Of
course the answer to these questions is no,
but children are often led to believe
otherwise. Young people need to understand
and appreciate that when it comes to
families, they are all different!
One of the world's most influential and loved
authors of educational children's books, Dr.
Sol Gordon has created an uplifting book for
young people age four and older who are
curious about just what it means to be part of

both parents, while others live with one or
with step- or foster parents. Nowadays, we
also find children being reared by aunts,
uncles, or grandparents, as well as same-sex
couples. The variety of possibilities is rich in
its diversity.

Straightlaced—How
Gender’s Got Us All Tied Up
http://groundspark.org/our-films-andcampaigns/straightlaced/straightlacedcurriculum-guide
This film shows the many, many ways, that
gender messages shape young people’s daily
decisions, and the toll that deeply held
stereotypes and rigid gender expectations
have on all our lives.
The film shares the engaging stories of more
than 50 high school students from a variety
of communities. With courage and candor,
these young people open their lives to the
camera: choosing between “male” and
“female” deodorant, deciding whether to go
along with anti-gay taunts in the locker room,
having the courage to take ballet or show
emotion, confronting eating disorders in their
circle of friends, avoiding the restroom so
they won’t get beaten up, negotiating
different “gender rules” in the US and their
home countries, mourning the suicide of a
classmate, finding the strength to stand up
for someone who’s being mistreated.
Straightlaced includes the perspectives of
teens who self-identify as heterosexual,
lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or

Straightlaced is designed to be used primarily
with high school students, grades nine and
above. You may also share parts of the film
(or in some cases the whole film) with middle
school students—however, due to the film’s
inclusion of mature adolescent themes such
as teen sexuality, drug use, violence and
suicide, if you will be
using it at the middle school level, please see
the section “Special Considerations for Using
Straightlaced at the Middle School Level” on
p. 17 of the curriculum guide. Also available
are online Straightlaced Discussion Guides
which provide streamlined more abbreviated
support for sparking dialogue about the
complex gender-based pressures affecting
today’s youth. Three versions are available to
customize the conversation for your specific
context for high school, middle school and
professional development.
Let's Get Real
Ground Spark
Examines issues that lead to
taunting and bullying, including
racial differences, perceived
sexual orientation, learning
disabilities, religious differences,
sexual harassment and others.
Name-calling and bullying are at epidemic
proportions among youth across the country,
and are often the root causes of violence in
schools. Let’s Get Real gives young people
the chance to tell their stories in their own
words–and the results are heartbreaking,
shocking, inspiring and poignant. Unlike the
vast majority of films made for schools about
the issue, Let’s Get Real doesn’t sugarcoat
the truth or feature adults lecturing kids
about what to do when “bad” kids pick on
them.

Let’s Get Real examines a variety of issues
that lead to taunting and bullying, including
racial differences, perceived sexual
orientation, learning disabilities, religious
differences, sexual harassment and others.
The film not only gives a voice to targeted
kids, but also to kids who do the bullying to
find out why they lash out at their peers and
how it makes them feel. The most heartening
part of Let’s Get Real includes stories of kids
who have mustered the courage to stand up
for themselves or a classmate.
The accompanying 130-page Let’s Get Real

This award-winning, 28-minute video identifies
the warning signs in teen relationships that set
the stage for adult domestic violence. A great
discussion starter, it is based on real scenarios
and dialogue suggested by teenagers
themselves. It features high school students
and locations, and is an excellent resource for
raising student awareness about healthy and
unhealthy relationships. Dramatizes specific
issues of power and control among teens, to
help them spot the signs and avoid the
corrosive effects of abusive relationships. To
that end, there are 25 “red flags” displayed
throughout the video to assist in the
awareness of violent behavior patterns in
dating relationships. Produced by: Henrico
