How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? Has definitely helped to develop empathy and understanding. Not sure that it has actually led to a change in environment in my class.
This kit really promoted critical thinking and developing empathy and understanding in children. Several of my students wrote amazing class speeches based around some of the ideas from this kit.

I found this kit very thought provoking especially for myself as a teacher. It helped me to see things from a different perspective and label some of the behaviours I have as an adult. The reflective journal was beneficial, targets were interesting (inner circle for children) and the pictionary cards fun and informing.

Hi thanks for producing a super kit! It fit with our unit beautifully. Really enjoyed the high quality materials and kids did too. Loved the Pictionary game and envelope activity in particular. I did find the teacher guide a bit confusing - firstly finding it then blowing it up big enough for my old eyes to read. Keep producing great resources. Love and appreciated your work. Pen Holah.

Our class enjoyed using this school kit. A lot of them had experienced racism and stereotyping first hand but had never questioned it or thought that it was wrong/ unkind.

It was great to see the kids holding each other accountable for their words/ actions/ thoughts towards other ethnicities.

What impact has the introduction of the action plan had on your classroom? Students are talking better to each other and also about other cultures around the world. They have a better understanding of racism and different forms of this.
How did using this kit change the environment in your classroom? Students stood up for each other and looked out for their peers.
The students enjoyed some of the activities but others were harder to follow. I think it needs to be easier to follow as a teacher.
