If you are looking for ways to bring more #LGBTQ representation into your #ELT classroom, I can’t recommend @peterjfullagar.co.uk’s resources enough. There are a number of free materials for a variety of levels on numerous topics to try, and further paid options.

I've just updated my FREE resource, Sexuality and Employment.
This was one of the earliest resources I made back in 2022 (have I really been doing resources for three years??!!).

Sexuality and employment - Peter J Fullagar
Students explore different jobs and the skills required to do them. Students read a text about discrimination and consider ways to combat this. The grammatical focus of this resource is the passive.
