Based on the census from 2010 the wage gap continues and has changed little in the last century. Many Women and people of color are segregated into low-paying jobs, with more than half of all women workers holding sales, clerical, and service jobs. Most students are not aware of this or how this affects their lives as they consider workforce careers and their budget and this simple and yet powerful Lesson Plan/Teachers Guide can bring this topic alive!
I created this educational 5 page (3 page Lesson Plan guide and 2 Page Specific Case Guide) specifically for Equal Pay Day. I had searched for one specific to this and couldn't find one so I hope that this can help another teacher!
Throughout this lesson plan /teacher guide you will find a complete lesson plan with different state and national standards, beginning ideas to start your class off, a suggestion of a lecture/powerpoint, activity ideas, discussion ideas, and even suggested readings/resources for you to pick and choose from. While this isn’t a “be all and end all” for any class, I hope that this will be a helpful resource that you can use as a way to engage with your students, foster creativity and critical thinking in your classroom, while coming alongside the requirements of specific state and test standards.

* Examples of Application State Standards (Examples from Around the United States)

* Opening Idea/Seat Work/Bell Work/Beginning Discussion Ideas:
