Present relevant background information, the purpose of the lesson,
4F
and learning objectives.
Opener: Play the song “Peace for One Day,” by Dave Stewart and Jimmy Cliff.
Teacher/Learner Activity 1 – A Performance for Peace:
• Hand out Resource P, which contains lyrics for this activity.
• Divide the class into groups of 3 to 5 and, using the first part of Resource P,
ask them to brainstorm ideas for the Peace Collective.
• Have each group write down what they would like to be responsible for and
do as part of the Peace Collective (e.g., perform a song or dance, write a
poem or story, create a painting or scene).
Teacher/Learner Activity 2 – Organizing a Peace Collective:
• Ask students to form a horseshoe around a central table, with an easel and
chart paper or a board at the head.
• Ask them to share the ideas from their group and have these ideas written
down on the paper or board.
• Encourage students to comment on presented ideas by expanding on them
or suggesting another point of view.
• Hand out Resource T.
• Using Resource T and Part 2 of Resource P, ask the class to discuss the
practical steps they must take to make the performance a reality.
• Again, engage students in adding to the suggestions or offering
another process.
• Ask students to return to their working groups (Action Committees) and to
review the suggestions presented in the previous activity.
• Ask each group to make a note of any tasks they agree to complete, and to
agree on a date for the next meeting.
Reflection/Ideas to Discuss:
• Have each group share their “rough draft” plan of what they will do for the
Peace Collective.
• Ask students/groups to share ideas that they particularly liked from the first
brainstorming activity, whether their own idea or one from another group.
• Discuss with the students the strengths and weaknesses of this method
of organizing.
• Ask students to share their feelings about their participation in the
planning process.
