Tools for Teachers Who Want Every Girl to Feel Seen

These resources are designed to complement the Slay All Day book and support classroom or program use without adding extra lift. They can be used flexibly for journaling, discussion, or reflection, depending on the needs of the girls you serve.


 

Quick Classroom Prompts

Warm-ups, bell ringers, and mini-reflection questions you can use with zero prep.

 

Printable Posters

Affirmations, leadership messages, and identity-safe language you can put on your walls so the room speaks life into them even when you’re busy grading or running around.

 

Social-Emotional Activities

Short, culturally grounded exercises designed to help girls build confidence, manage emotions, and find their voice.

 

Book Tie-Ins

Simple ways to connect Slay All Day to literacy, writing, history, or social-emotional learning. No formal curriculum required.

 

Conversation Frameworks

Scripts and prompts for handling friend conflict, self-esteem issues, or the moments when a student suddenly shuts down and you need to gently open the door.

Why This Matters in Your Classroom
The data is real. Black girls are disciplined more harshly, labeled “defiant” for behaviors that would be called “leadership” in other students, and overlooked for gifted programs despite strong abilities.

You see it.
You feel it in staff meetings.
You see it in the way some girls pull back, stay quiet, or fold into themselves over time.

This Academy gives you tools to push back — not through lectures or assemblies, but through everyday moments of connection and affirmation.

Because when a Black girl trusts her teacher, everything changes.
Her confidence rises. Her voice shows up. Her brilliance expands.
How to Use This Page
Take the resources. Print them. Share them with your team. Use them for morning meetings, advisory, SEL blocks, after-school groups, or one-on-one check-ins.

Everything here is designed to fit into your real day — the chaotic one, the heavy one, the one where you’re covering two classes and your planning period disappears. Simple, quick, effective.
