Sox Sperry, LookSharp's primary curriculum writer, leads participants on a participatory exploration of lesson elements from three of our curriculum kits that are directly related to food justice topics: Media Constructions of Chemicals in the Environment; Media Constructions of Sustainability: Food, Water and Agriculture; and Media Constructions of Sustainability: Finger Lakes. These kits are available free online at www.projectlooksharp.org.

The webinar offers pre-service and high school teachers along with college and community food justice educators pedagogical techniques and curriculum materials to support a deeper understanding of how to tie goals to content in lesson design. We will engage in live chat sessions and interactive analysis activities exploring how to use media sources (including videos, websites, and articles) to deepen critical thinking practices about authorship, purpose and economics. We also highlight ways to use media documents to teach to national standards in science, social studies and English Language Arts. At the end of the webinar there will be a Q&A with Sox Sperry and Cyndy Scheibe, Project Look Sharp's executive director and founder.
