unit 3: Community Story summary: community and self-advocacy (5 minutes) oBJECtiVE: StuDentS WILL ReFLect on HoW communIty InFLuenceS WHo tHey ARe. Have each student share his/her community map, describing at least one of the highlighted features. Remind your students to practice their professional communication skills in their presentations and while they are listening to others. After all of the students have presented, ask your students how their communities are similar? Different? How will their communities support them as they progress in high school and go to college? How might their communities challenge them? How do they think their communities impact their development as individuals? Remind your students that understanding where they come from helps them understand who they are now, what values they think are important, and what kind of values they'll bring to college and their adult lives. Have them take their community maps home, so they can share their community's strengths with their most immediate community: their families. LeSSon 14: communIty ASSet mAP 127
