About this resource

The Life After High School Classroom Lesson helps high school students consider their post-secondary transition. With plenty of reflection questions and opportunities for sharing with peers, students will self-explore and dig into their own experiences as they anticipate the transition to come. Students will discuss topics like future careers, finances, "adulting," and socialization. These topics will give students an opportunity to discuss healthy mental and physical well-being as they launch into independence and adulthood. This includes 13 non-editable slides to introduce the topic of "Life After High School." This topic is relatable to ALL students who will graduate from high school no matter their post-secondary path. This resource can easily be used with digital/distance, hybrid, or in-person learning. The Conversation Card Game will reinforce the self-exploration and group conversation in the introduction slides. The card game requires printing and cutting for each deck of cards. You'll need one deck of cards per 2-10 students who are playing. Once prepped, the card decks will be reusable for future groups or classes. An additional facilitator guide includes additional questions for parenting and pregnant teen students. Students will: • practice decision-making and goal-setting as it pertains to life after high school • practice interpersonal communication skills as they reflect and anticipate a future life transition What's Included in This Resource?: • Lesson Plan • Life After High School Instructions for Google Slides • Life After High School Digital Google Slides (also sold separately here) • Conversation Card Game • Additional Questions for Parenting and Pregnant Students School counselors or teachers can share the interactive Google Slides with students via Google Classroom™ and let students view on their computers, iPads, or phones.
