I thought it would be useful for readers, and for me, if I began collecting teaching resources on the tragic Trayvon Martin case. I hope people will contribute additional resources.

Here are my picks for The Best Resources For Lessons On Trayvon Martin:

On Trayvon Martin: A Guest Post From a Teenager, and Some Teaching Suggestions is an excellent collection from The New York Times Learning Network.

Teaching about the TRAYVON MARTIN case is from African American History.

NY Core has a downloadable lesson.

After Trayvon Martin’s Death, We’re All Having ‘The Talk’ is from NPR.

Paul Allison has been posting resources over at Google+.

Additional suggestions are welcome.
