Think about toleranceGrade 12 Transactional ELA

Have you experienced intolerance?

Simple Plan - CRAZY

“Tell me what’s wrong with society

When everywhere I look, I seeYoung girls dying to be on TVThey won’t stop till they’ve

reached their dreamsDiet pills, surgery

Photoshop pictures in magazines

Telling them how they should beIt doesn't make sense to me”

Tolerance is being open and receptive to the beauty of

differences.

April is Special-Education Month

The seeds of intolerance are fear and ignorance

Do YOU judge others?

Tell me what’s wrong with

societyWhen everywhere I

look I seeRich guys driving

big SUVsWhile kids are starving in the

streets

“Is everybody going crazy?Is anybody going to save me?”

Simple Plan - CRAZY

Why are people intolerant?

All people are people

How can you encourage

acceptance?

Amanda Marshall – Everybody’s got a story

Now who could read the mind of the red-headed girl next door

Or the taxi driver who just

dropped you off Or the classmate

that you ignore

Don't assume everything on the surface is what you see

'Cause that classmate just lost her mother

And that taxi driver's got a PhD I'm so tired of the fear

That weighs us down with wrong assumptions

Of broken hearts, a natural function

Peace is the goal. Tolerance is the method.

"I do not distinguish by the eye, but by the mind, which is the proper judge

of the man." ---Seneca

Will YOU be more accepting

of others?
