Final Activity

 Hi all,

For this blog post, I will be sharing an activity that highlights another social justice topic that is prevalent in today's society. This topic is racial profiling,

1. Housing costs/trends-> C3.1, B3.5, A2, B1.1

2. Public heath statistics of different countries-> C3.1, B3.5, A2

3. Crimes and racial profiling -> C3.1, B3.5, A2

4. Passion project on a social justice topic (student choice) -> D1.3, D2.2

5. Women in STEM/Pay inequality -> A2, F1.1, F1.4 

For this activity, students will conduct research, and find data. Students will then make notes of the data they find. They will chose two sets of data to graph and compare (ie. number of arrests made against black people, and number arrests against white people). Students will graph and compare the data to make a real world connection.

I think also, this activity could allow for a meaningful class discussion. For this activity I would give students the chance to share their findings, and discuss why this is such a big issue. To begin the activity, I may even show some news articles and videos to get the students intrigued!

Until next time,
