Small Group Activity
Your students already know a great deal about labor and childbirth. After giving a brief overview of the stages of labor, divide the class into three groups, giving each group a card with a scenario involving a pregnant person. In addition to the scenario, each card has several questions for the group to answer. The groups will have a few minutes to discuss their scene and answer their questions. Then, the groups will come together and each will present their situation, along with questions and answers, to the class. Provide resources so that students can look up answers, but they often find that they already know a lot about labor! A sample set of three labor scenarios is included in handouts.
Talking Points:
Discuss ideas presented by the groups and correct any misinformation.
