40 min Skype call with my supervisor to outline tasks for summer while I am not on location. Initial list includes
1. SHAPE semester 2 facilitator feedback -organization and analysis
2. Semester 1 and 2 - pre/post and evals data analysis and demonstration
3. Pre-test SHAPE (1 and 2) - translate to Spanish
4. Spanish SHAPE lessons -translating
5. Spanish STI/resources and BCM flyers -translating
6. PPSD resource guide -Checking for Spanish resources
7. PPSD survey data presentation
I then organized the files I received based on tasks and set about organizing and analyzing the data for SHAPE 1 and 2 Facilitator feedback. I organized it in a way that each facilitator pair received their individual data and were able to see cumulative results rather than simply the data/responses as a whole
This week was a very rough lesson. We are severely behind due to 3 classes that have been cancelled (because of snow storms and PSATs) so we had to combine two long lessons into one. We prepared a variety of activities in order to be able to address key points, but there was a lot of pushback from the students. Although a lot of them were extremely receptive and appreciated the content we were talking about, engaging with it and asking questions, some students continue to dominate the discussion. They are disruptive and, while on topic, may provide harmful examples and triggering comments that are very hard to respond to calmly or address fully without placing all the attention on them. However, we did our best to restate our points, clarify their questions, provide examples and summarize everything so that they can leave with some understanding of what consent and healthy relationships may look like.

We did puzzles and word searches together while waiting for people to trickle in. Then we decided to list all the possible activities for the day and had them vote on what they want us to learn so that the process is democratized and we can target the topics they are interested in.
They chose to learn fast food dialogue so we practiced reading it, defining the words, practicing with each other, presenting it in front of the class and then doing it without reading the questions on the paper! Then we learnt the difference between verbs, nouns and adjectives while making a list of the ones we know. Finally, we played a team game/competition on the board to practice what we just learnt!

This week we answered questions, and although there was a lot of dissent about the questions that were asked (students criticizing each other for asking these questions) it fostered a conversation. We spoke of messages about gender that our communities have given us, a lot of the time focusing on roles, domestic work/situations, etc. Then, we presented some definitions about Sex/Gender/Gender Assigned at Birth and had a lot of pushback, specifically from a student who was angry that we were trying to explain that there are more than two genders. Although Sara and I wanted to respond to him and attempt to answer his concerns, Brian removed him from the classroom fearing he would get more agitates, which we believe is more damaging than helpful. We then spoke to the rest of the class about it and tried to answer their concerns but ran out of time.
