I loved this kit, it gave such concise practical steps and wonderful resources. We were also studying protest songs in English this term, so was a beautiful link. It allowed student voice and agency and I enjoyed the range of activities provided. The kids really engaged with the stereotype pictionary game. The only thing I would do to improve this is to tell them at the start- no stick figures! I realised no stereotypes were showing while they were drawing stick people, but when I told them to draw real people, stereotypes abounded! The 'I wish my teacher knew' cards were quite disturbing in some cases, although I fronted it as being focussed on discrimination or an opportunity to share about their lives and cultures, it kind of became a confessional and a range of anonymous issues were presented that I couldn't do anything about. I would also encourage caution when doing the implicit bias test - teachers should have a look at the options before setting the task for the class. The global and local sheets were really good and helped a lot when doing the Instagram posts. We made this a group project and the kids had to use the sheets to explain to the rest of the class the issue examined on the poster. Then they had to work together to make IG posts related to the 9 tiles. They actually did this very well and it became the final assessment in google classroom. I made up a template on slides and the 9 themes had to be covered (I will add some photos of their work) They were very engaged and most of the final projects were of a high quality.
