Five Steps to Avoid the School to Prison Pipeline - Grades 7-11 Available on Amazon (Price drop! Was $9.99, now $6.30 only on Amazon)
Looking for an innovative way to reengage at-risk youth in learning as we move out of the pandemic? This workbook for urban black and brown youth offers realistic and relatable short stories and practical activities that help kids become more aware of everyday life triggers that can lead them down a road of life struggles and the school to prison pipeline. It’s highly recommended for Grades 7-11, as they prepare to enter and complete high school. The workbook combines several methodologies such as discussions, interactive role plays and hands on activities. The Five Steps enhance self-awareness and generates thoughtful discussion with youth on commonly found real life issues seen in high crime impoverished communities.
The workbook is most appropriate for youth ages 12-17 who journey through real life stories and questions together (with a Facilitator). The stories are based on actual events and are designed to open natural restorative conversations around real life experiences which urban youth and their families may encounter. It is a story of one family’s journey through the 5 Steps as they try to avoid the “school to prison pipeline”. The characters are 15-year-old Jaleesa, 16-year-old Robert, their Mom Latonia and their Dad Robert Sr.
Restorative conversations using the 5 Steps Workbook provides a series of preventive activities where students use real life stories to understand issues from different perspectives. Real life examples are used to help youth conceptualize how their decisions can impact their future.
