We must present students with the science and the facts to intellectually argue the pro-life values. Using the leading research on how students learn and retain information, the Heart2Heart program combines storytelling and facts to be most effective.
The Heart2Heart Educational Program is a free online library of professionally filmed videos that serve to teach students pro-life values on various pro-life issues. Each video will be accompanied by a lesson helper in order to arm teachers with the resources to teach pro-life values in their classrooms.
Here’s How it Works
Storytelling and Discussion.
This program creates a free online library of high quality videos of real people who have experienced abortion and other anti-life issues. They tell their stories, along with relative facts, allowing students to hear about the issues first-hand and have an informed discussion.
Watch and Learn.
These videos are no longer than 15 minutes in order to fit in a class period and allow time for classroom discussion. Each video is accompanied by a teacher’s guide, or “Lesson Helper,” with suggested discussion questions, activities, resources, and other information for teachers.
Experience and Act.
After watching the videos and learning, teachers can motivate and empower their students to experience and defend the pro-life movement by:
1) Attending the March for Life Chicago
2) Participating in our Student Oratory Contest.
Turn Illinois Pro-Life.
Through education, we can change minds, motivate students to take action, and empower the next generation of pro-lifers with science and the facts to turn our state pro-life.
Who can use the program and how?
