Content Outline, Activities and Teaching Strategies
(All options do not necessarily need to be taught. Select ones to cover standards and objectives and according to your district policies.)

Option 1: Rape Vocabulary
Use the vocabulary worksheet (pdf) and define the terms related to rape. Discuss with the students even though now we know what rape is and is not, we see that society sometimes has a different perception of it.

Option 2: Rape Scenarios
Divide class in half and read the Rape Scenarios (pdf). Have the students take notes on the study guide about what each party did that were risky behaviors and what each could have done to prevent the rape. Discuss findings from both sides of the room representing both parties. Write their ideas on the board or a flip chart. Include information from Prevention Behaviors for Young Women and Young Men (pdf).

Option 3: Date Rape Drugs
Review information about Date Rape Drugs, found at http://www.crfc.org/pdf/date.pdf

Option 4: Rape Discussion and Case Studies
Discuss this information in this handout (pdf) with the students.

Complete the test (pdf) with the students. Discuss the answers (pdf) as a class.

Option 6: Profile of a Rapist

Option 7: Sexual Assault/Rape Risk Reduction

Option 8: If You are Victimized
If you are raped, what should you do? Discuss information from the information of what to do if you are victimized (pdf).

Option 9: How to Help Someone Who has been Raped

Summary/Evaluation
FORCE IS NEVER ACCEPTABLE. All people are responsible for controlling their sexual desires. NO ONE should ever have sexual intercourse if he or she is uncomfortable or pressured. Sexual pressure and exploitation involves both males and females.
