This was the first school kit I have received. The teacher resource is great, I like the step by step information. Unfortunately, I have not used the kit yet with a student/s as I work in a health school and it did not fit in with the students I had this year. The resource is still sitting by my desk ready to trial next year.....watch this space.

How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? Students became more aware of each other and were able to interact more positively with each other.
This resource was great and really got my students thinking about their own background and their classmates backgrounds.

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? The compliments activity, focusing on positive characteristics of your classmates, that did not draw from physical attributes, worked to get students thinking beyond the surface. The circles generated discussion around those who we consider important/ rel
The rich learning, discussion and reflection generated within my year 8 classroom as we progressed through the plan was fantastic. It complimented progress we had made with emotional literacy over the first half of the year and gave us opportunities to extend this by exploring our perceptions and different perspectives. I will be reusing much of this resource in the new year!

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? Students have looked at preconceptions and stereotypes. We also used this resource as a springboard to creating static images about stereotypical beliefs.
How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? I learned a lot from the What I Want My Teacher to know activity. This has helped my understanding of the students.
Some interesting material. The students especially loved the pictionary, which provided numerous talking points.

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? Helped to remember to be kind and that some times we forget that people need or want to hear it. Having kind things said and accepting where people sit in our lives was a great reminder that could be used more, particularly as the year progresses.
How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? It created a more open and positive environment where they were able to share kindness and hear it. It made realisations that people liked them more than they thought. Sense of appreciation was made.
This pack was full of really amazing lessons and resources. Unfortunately, this pack was not a hit with my class. Many factors have attributed to this. The demographic that makes up our school and the area that we live in made it a little hard to relate to. Although this type of thing has been in the news, it does not hit close to home enough for it to be a real impact like I had hoped. It is a touchy subject and it was hard for me to use the whole pack to its fullest potential. We did do a couple of activities. My students loved looking through influential people in their lives. We had in-depth conversations in why and how people are placed in our lives and the roles that they play in them. We also wrote really kind things to each other using the template. I altered this a bit with how we approached it, but it was nice to see the kind things that they thought about each other.

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? I will be using this again at the start of the new school year, emphasising pronouncing names correctly, helping children understand their own identity and celebrating everyone in their classes identity. I will also be using the ";What I want my teacher t
How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? Children seem to become a more cohesive unit, they look out for each other and stood up for things that they thought were wrong.
This kit was amazing. It really challenged my thinking alongside my students. It opened our eyes to how we act and how our actions, words and attitudes can affect others.

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? It has allowed students to feel more comfortable with who they are and know that it is okay to be different and that this needs celebrating!
How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? We used it for drama and role playing.
This kit was great for challenging stereotypes and generating a lot of good robust discussion in the classroom. It allowed students to feel safe and have examples as a base to start.
