Let me guess—you’ve seen the "comprehensive" sex ed curriculum your school wants you to teach high schoolers, and you’re thinking, There’s no way my teens will listen to this. Well, you’re right. They most likely won’t.
But you know what they will listen to? REAL-WORLD conversations and activities about sexual health. Teens need authentic lessons to help them navigate not only puberty but also 2025 and the hyper-sexualized world that lives on their phones. Traditional sex ed won’t cut it.
They need open conversations about making informed decisions, the differences between porn and reality, consent, sexting, understanding gender identity and expression, exploring forms of birth control and HOW TO ACCESS THEM in their local area, and knowing where to get tested for STIs..
This unit is the modern sexual health curriculum you wish you’d had as a teen. It’s TRULY COMPREHENSIVE, medically accurate, and completely shame-free.
Plus, there are LifeFluent YouTube videos to go along with the lessons—check them out before buying!

I’ll be honest…this unit isn’t for every health teacher. If you’re in a state that mandates abstinence-only or abstinence-plus education, some of these lessons might not work for you. So please review everything before purchasing.
But if you’re ready to get real with your students (grades 9-12) provide factual, honest, and open conversations, and include the benefits of abstinence (without making it the sole focus), then THIS IS FOR YOU.
