Description

Today’s lesson will focus on Teenage Pregnancy.

Can you guess why I chose this topic? We believe it is necessary for adolescents to understand the facts about teenage pregnancy so that they can make informed decisions about their lives and sexuality.

After this lesson, you will be able to:

1) Define teenage pregnancy

2) Recognise how teen pregnancy affects girls/boys, the community and the country

3) Define transactional sex and unequal power relationships
