Social Justice Project: Student-Led Packet

Need a research project, writing assignment or social justice unit that promotes student-led learning, social justice and activism, group collaboration, online research and writing?

This complete project packet outlines everything students need to self-navigate a 6 week research project. Perfect for the final unit of the year, step away from your typical mini-lesson and give students ownership over a self-guided research project.

ZIP FILE INCLUDES (PDFs):
- Complete Student Project Packet
- Social Justice Project Introduction: Lesson Plan
- Social Justice Project Introduction: Student Materials for Do Now, Video clip viewing and independent practice/mini project to learn about social justice
- BONUS: ART/ELA project
- BONUS: School Fundraiser Materials
- Project & Presentation Rubrics

No teacher materials necessary for the project packet as the packet is thorough, script-like and self-explanatory. Over the unit, students will work in groups to choose from a list of real-life Non-Profit organizations and then research and write a grant proposal to compete for an imaginary grant of $100,000.

Your students will love the social activism, independence and healthy sense of competition they feel as they hone their collaboration, research, writing and presentation skills.
