Lesson Plans

At Boys' Latin School, peer education lessons are presented to the sixth grade and ninth grade students.

The sixth grade curriculum consists of nine lessons presented over the course of the spring semester. One peer educator team (consisting of three students) is scheduled to present a lesson in one class meeting of one of the sixth grade subjects during a week. This keeps the groups small and prevents repetition. The specific lessons that are presented have been created by the faculty team or are from the Teenage Health Teaching Modules (THTM). For information on THTM curriculum, please click here.

The ninth grade curriculum consists of two lessons that have been created by the faculty team. The lessons are presented during a special assembly time in the Upper School so that the peer educators do not miss too much class time.
