Celebrate Diversity!JANUARY 2017 CHARACTER EDUCATION LESSON #1

Learning Target Practice…

Learning Target: I can celebrate diversity by acknowledging the differences in people around me and respecting and celebrating the unique distinctions in individual people.

I can appreciate and accept that others differ from me in many ways: CulturalLikes/Dislikes Gender Socio-economic Political Physical Religious Age Values Philosophy Opinions Thoughts… ideas… background…

What does DIVERSITY mean to you…

Discuss with your class!

Keep an OPEN-MIND…

It’s important to understand human rights! Justice, equality, respect for group differences, and individual integrity is all part of that.

Just as you want to be treated fairly and with respect,so does everyone else…

Differences give us the opportunity to learn, accept, and realize that the world is a big place, and there is room for all of usand our ideas, opinions, beliefs, etc.
