Day 1 || __Day 1__ I will present the authentic problem to my students on slides through [|slideshare.] The slide show will cover facts and statistics about the importance of remaining abstinence. Students will be given a few start-up questions to ignite their thinking. The rubric will also be introduced so students will have a full understanding of the expectations.

 * Week One:

"Good morning class, today we will tackle an on going problem amongst high school students. There is so much evidence that proves many high school students are not practicing abstinence and are engaging in sexual activities. What should you do to help increase awareness? Well, over the next six weeks, you will research and collect information about increasing awareness to high school students on the importance of remaining abstinent until marriage. I will divide everyone in a group so that you everyone can collaborate and work with others to solve the problem. Your final goal is to create and present a school-wide abstinent campaign that will ultimately increase awarenes to all students. Please review the rubric that will go along with this project so that everyone has a clear understanding of the expectations required for this project." Here are a few questions to ponder on as we begin our first lesson?"


 * Why do you think this behavior continues to be a problem for high school students?
 * What possible solutions can you think of that can increase awareness for students to remain abstinent until marriage?
 * What are the consequences of having pre-marital sex?

"Before we answer these questions, we will view at a slideshow through [|slideshare] that presents information, statistics and possible solutions to the problem."

Students will view a slideshow and take handnotes on information that they feel is important for creating a abstinence campaign.

"Everyone is required to take individual hand notes of the presentation in which you will later transfer your notes to a web-based, graphic organizer. Please take notes from the slide show that is pertinent for creating your campaign."

__Day 2__ Students will watch a [|video] about teenagers and their sexual choices.

"Today, we will watch a video that illustrates teenagers and their choices on being abstinent or being sexually active. Please include any additional information in your notes from the video that you did not get from the slide show. Before you take the information from your notes and transfer them to the graphic organizer, I am going to divide everyone into groups. Once you are in your groups, you will discuss information from your notes about teenage sex, abstinence, pregnancy & STD’s. Each group will compare and contrast information.

__Days 3 & 4__ Each group will give an informal presentation of the information discussed and recorded in their groups to the entire class. Each group must take notes from the group that is presenting of information that wasn’t discussed within their group.

"Today, each group will give an informatl presentation of the information discussed in your groups. Please metion the information that is pertinent for creating a solution to the problem. Also, write down any information that other groups present that your group does not have. This will give you a chance to collect new information from other groups."

__Day 5__ Students will compile all information and data that was gathered in their groups and place it on a graphic organizer.

"Today, each group will compile your notes using a graphic organizer which is a digital, web-based collaborative organizer where everyone in the group is able to add, edit or delete information while working together simultaneously. So basically everyone in the group doesn't have to sit at the same computer at the same time to add, edit or delete information. You are encouraged to set a time when everyone can operate the graphic organizer at one time either together or at different computers. It could be during this class, another class, after school or a public library. If someone can't meet at the specific meet time, then that person or persons must make their contributions to the graphic organizer at some point during that day.

__Week 2 (Day 1- 5)__ Students will use their graphic organizers and the internet to research information and data concerning teenage sex, teenage pregnancy and std's.

"Please use this week to do individual and group research to begin planning for the abstinent campaigns as you will be moving into lesson B, which begins next week." || Graphic Organizer, [|Slide Share] pen, paper, rubric,

Students with physical disabilities will be granted an extension of one week if needed. Students can research information using the health books provided by the teacher. A rubric will be used to guide students throughout the lesson.
