How can we make sure we all have access to the best quality skateboarding, arts and educational lessons available? Share your lesson plans and curriculum here for others to try out, or make a request if you're looking for a particular topic or resource.
I had to really dig deep for these.... About 12 years ago we ran an ESL afterschool program that taught children English an Skateboarding at the same time.
We made a textbook and everything, here are some sample pages.
Hi Vaughan, these are great! Would you be willing to share the complete manual? I think our teams in South Africa and Cambodia would make good use of them during their English tutoring sessions.
I'm sure other groups on here would use them too!

The Aspen Institute is a US organization that we often look to for guidance and inspiration, but particularly through their work in their Project Play program.
They've recently launched their Teamwork Toolkit for community leaders and NGO practitioners that use sports for good.
Their site is top-notch, I think:

Take a look, get inspired.
These are so sick!
gotta post the open source skateboards page here!

Woah that website is amazing! So many good resources on there. I love the video tutorials and this full curriculum on skateboard making.
Thanks for sharing! Will also link this on the Goodpush Skate Toolkit.
Hi
Adlan from Malaysia here. wow the text design book for after school program was awesome. do you have copies we can purchase?
@Boylpoh I've been in touch with Vaughan and they don't have the final files any more, but he did find several more of the worksheets and said Goodpush is welcome to share them.
We are currently working on a Members' Learning Library and will be sure to include the PDFs in there so that all of you can download and use these amazing Skate of Mind resources -- hopefully by end of June this will be ready. Thanks Vaughan!
Hey yall!
Wanted to post this here before the online meetup, I created a lil supplement packet talking about board shapes and designing a board.

Would love feedback, comments, collaboration, etc.
It is part of a larger curriculum we are working on at the Museum of Design Atlanta!
Hey Max , thanks for sharing this amazing resource. It looks like a great one for the 10-18 age range. I'm going to share it with our Educators and Skateistan and I'll let you know any feedback from them once they've used it!
I think it's great how visual it is, and that it first asks people to think about the questions before providing very clear explanations of what they purpose is (ie. for concave).
Please share more resources like this! Would love something similar about skatepark design!

Hey all,
Inspired by a game that my friends set up, we've prototyped a scavenger hunt that can be done on a skateboard. I've quickly put together a step by step gameplay for anyone interested to set this up for their own local community. Probably the doc still contains some flaws and grammar mistakes, but use it as an inspiration :) You can find the document here:
