Our Whole Lives (OWL) – Lifespan Sexuality Education Curricula COMING TO UUFD in 2008-2009!
What is OWL?
Our Whole Lives is a series of sexuality education curricula
for five age groups: grades K-1, grades 4-6, grades 7-9, grades 10-12,
and adults.
Our Whole Lives helps participants make informed and responsible decisions about their sexual health and behavior. It equips participants with accurate, age-appropriate information in six subject areas: human development, relationships, personal skills, sexual behavior, sexual health, and society and culture. Grounded in a holistic view of sexuality, Our Whole Lives provides not only facts about anatomy and human development, but helps participants to clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality.
If you’d like more information about OWL or you’d like to help us get it started please take the survey below or email Vanessa Self at vanessaswenk@hotmail.com.
Please take note of the special resources available from the Church of the Larger Fellowship on-line at www.clf.org/clf. I also encourage you to look at this curriculum web-site: www.rec-room.org.
