Continue the learning journey with the following writing prompt:
In NAME YOUR FEARS, students will write a two- to three-page script of a podcast episode using what they learned reading the article. After introducing themselves and their show to the audience, have them explain the difference between fears and phobias, and describe some of the common ones they learned about. From there, they should share their own story of a time they felt scared, and tell how they dealt with that feeling in a healthy way (or what they would do next time to deal with it more effectively). Encourage them to get creative too, perhaps by including a “listener email” segment where they read listeners’ questions about fears or phobias and respond to them using the information they learned from the article. Give interested students the option to record their episode for extra engagement!
