One Out of Five lesson series

One Out of Five lesson series

*These lessons were developed by Washington State’s “One Out of Five” and links to an external source.

Summary:

One Out of Five was designed by the Washington State Governor's Office of the Education Ombuds in partnership with Rooted in Rights and two local educators, Adina Rosenberg and Sarah Arvey. One Out of Five is designed for middle school ELA classes, but can be modified for other grade levels or subject areas. This resource can be used during Disability History Month or any other time during the school year. The lessons are designed to be taught in order, but also function as stand-alone lessons and/or activities. Lessons are broken into 5 - 15 min components, and can be used to introduce ideas and vocabulary words on a limited time schedule.
