4B
the lesson, and the learning objectives.
Teacher/Learner Activity 1 (Brainstorm):
• Ask students what words come to mind when they see or hear the words
“identity” and “culture.”
• Capture the words on chart paper or on the board.
Teacher/Learner Activity 2 – “Me and My Culture” Mind Map:
• Divide students into pairs.
• Hand out Resource K and ask students to recreate it on a large sheet of
paper, leaving enough space in each box to make notes.
• Ask them to choose one box from the “Me and My Culture” Mind Map and,
on a separate piece of paper, expand it into a collage, photomontage,
poster, song lyric, poem, portrait, etc., for the Peace POD.
• Ask pairs to write down a pledge to bring in two low-cost items they would
like to put in the Peace POD (e.g., a CD, a photo, a recipe, or an article from
a magazine or newspaper).
• Ask pairs to write down which country they would like to make a link with
and why.
Reflection/Ideas to Discuss:
Using a SMART board or overhead transparency of Resource K, gather information
chapter
from students.

• What definitions of “culture” and “identity” surfaced? Can the class agree on
one definition for each term?
• Can the whole class agree on a definition of “ethnicity”?
• What is meant by the term “ethnic diversity”?
• Have students consider and discuss the ethnic diversity of their class, school,
community, state, and the United States as a whole.
• In what ways do we benefit from that diversity?
• What might be the benefit of creating a link with another culture?
• Why is appreciating and respecting diversity important in establishing a
more peaceful world?
• Would you consider yourselves “global citizens”? In what ways?
