IDAC Key Stage 2
Lesson Plan Overview
Lesson 1
L.O: Understanding the idea of rights
In this lesson, students will be introduced to the idea of rights by discussing what rights we expect, and issues that affect themselves and society such as the consequences of anti-social and aggressive behaviours, such as bullying and racism, on individuals and communities. Students will also reflect on various issues from around the world, using imagination to understand other people’s experiences. The main task will involve deciding classroom rules that everyone is happy with and then explaining that by signing everyone agrees to follow the rules so everyone will feel safe in the classroom.

Lesson 2
L.O: Understanding the importance of education and the differences of learning across the world
Using the Millennium Development Goals this lesson will explore why going to school is important. The main task will ask students to produce a poster promoting learning for all students, gaining an understanding that some places in the world experience a lack of access to education and therefore lead very different lives.

Lesson 3
L.O: Finding out how learning in Africa is different to the UK
Students will be asked to count the steps they take to school and then compare this to how many steps Ugandan students such as Joseph and Sarah from the case studies take. This is one difference that can be made apparent in a fun and inclusive way.
