With every major article in Choices, you’ll find a custom lesson plan to help you kickstart your planning. You'll find them beneath each article on the issue page:

Think of these lesson plans almost like recipes – you’ll see the different skills the article targets, the learning objective, and a guide you can follow for close-reading and critical-thinking questions, along with culminating activities to reinforce learning.

You can take the lesson plans and follow them as-is, or pull out and customize whatever you need to work for your classroom. Many teachers find that our lesson plans are great guiding resource to share with substitute teachers.
