Welcome to the FAIR Education Act Website!
The goal for this website is to be a one-stop place to find lessons and resources to support teachers to make history and social studies a more fair, accurate, inclusive and respectful experience for all students.
Click on the grade level of the lesson that they’re looking for, and once you’ve tried a lesson, please leave us some feedback so other educators can benefit from your experience.
This website is a work in progress, and we’re always looking for more lessons to add, in addition to any feedback you may have. Please e-mail [email protected] or contact us here .
Plans for the near future include:
- Additional lessons and resources as they become available, particularly those from the people with disabilities community.
- Each grade level will be sortable to type of resource: books, videos, lessons, etc.
- Increased accessibility of this website include font size and contrast.
- An interactive map that highlights places of geographical importance to people with disabilities and LGBTQ people.
