Building Effective Expression Skills Through Middle School Dialogue About Fast Fashion

This podcast showcases an interdisciplinary argumentative reading, writing, listening, and speaking unit that asks students to grapple with who should take responsibility for corporate environmental degradation, specifically in the “fast fashion” shoes and jeans industries. Students engage with various texts and use those texts to formulate verbal and written arguments about a high-interest topic. At the end of the unit, students create a social media reel ecological call-to-action using Canva.“Wherever I’m at, I want to contribute. I want to participate in this conversation.” – Marivell ArayasirikulFeatured ELA Superheroes:Marivell Caba Arayasirikul (she/her)Explore the episode and teacher resources: https://ca-eli.org/ela-superheroes/ Hosted on Acast.
