Lesson Plan #4 Goal: 4. To stand up for oneself and others in the face of bias. Example: Lesson Title: Who Am I? Curriculum Content: Social/Emotional Estimated lesson length: 15-30 minutes (depends on attention span) Goals: #1 To develop positive, knowledgable, and confident self-identity within a cultural context. Materials: File folder (or card stock), 4-6 color markers, die, index cards Teacher preparation: Draw a 2-inch wide path, winding back and forth on construction paper. Mark one aside as “START” and the other end as “FINISH”. Write questions about culture and family on the index cards: 1. Do you have any brothers or sisters? 2. What is your families favorite meal? 3. Do you have relatives that do not live in this country? Where do they live? 4. Are there special holidays you celebrate? Describe what you do. 5. Do you speak any other languages? Does anybody in your family speak other languages? 6. Do you have a pet? If not, what animals do you like? 7. Who lives in your house? 8. Have you ever traveled to another place? Where? What was it like? 9. Is there special music that your family listens to? 10. Are there special clothes that you, or people in your family, dress in for special occasions? If so, describe them. 11. How are you similar to your family members? 12. How are you different than your family members? 13. What kinds of things do you do with your family on the weekends? 14. Share something about you or your family that is special? Directions: 1. Gather a small group of children (4-6) at a table. Tell them they are going to play a game to get to know each and themselves better. Remind the children of what the word culture means (taught in a previous lesson): We all have families, and they are all unique. Culture is what makes your family special. 2. Show them the game board, point to the path, and show them the direction they will move in, hold up markers that are all different colors and let them pick which one they want (ask by first name in alphabetical order if they disagree or compete over a color). Then hold up the card stack and tell them these are the question cards. Place them on the table face down next to the game board. 3. The teacher goes first to model how the game is played. Roll the die, pick a card, if you can answer the questions, you can move that many spaces forward, and mark it with your marker. 4. Child to the right of the teacher goes first. They roll the die, the teacher reads the card, if the child can answer they move forward the number of spaces they rolled, and mark it with their color marker. 5. Keep playing rounds until somebody wins. The deck can be cycled through as many times as necessary, as long as the child doesn’t get the same question twice. Assessment: Summative assessment – as children are playing, the teacher can take note of their level of comprehension and ability to answer the question. Formal assessment – at the end of the game, or the next day, the teacher can ask individual children some of the questions from the index card to check for comprehension and retention. Cultural Relevance/Anti-Bias: 1. Children begin to identify with aspects of their culture and family. 2. Children get to describe their family and culture with comfort and acceptance. Family Involvement: Create a handout with the questions from the index cards. Send it home to families with directions to discuss them with children at home. Reflection: Some of the children were not able to answer the questions. Perhaps it would be better to send the questions home first to discuss with the family, and then they would be more prepared when it is time to play in class. Also, this game does not benefit from being competitive. I think just the cards and a conversation would work just as w

How does the Industrial Age compare to the Digital Age as outlined by Tilleczek & Srigley (2017) article?  Give two ways in which it is the same and two ways in which it is different for young people. Complete an Internet search about Aaron Swartz. This could include watching the film The Internet’s Own Boy and/or Killswitch.  Write a short biography (2-3 pages) of him by answering the following: Who was Aaron Swartz, what happened to him and why?  Include the details about the legal battles he was engaged with in trying to address Internet freedom and net neutrality.  What does his story say about living in the Digital Age? How does Aaron Swartz’s story compare to Edward Snowden’s story?  (if you are unfamiliar with Edward Snowden you will need to research his story and could watch the films Citizen Four and/or Snowden). Prepare an analysis (two-pages) of a movie or video game or digital App of your choice that in some way pertains to children; whether it was made for children or represents them in a particular way. Use Questions 5 and 6 on page 157 of Mills and Mills as a guide to your analysis. What are 5 most important opportunities and constraints of digital technology for children according to EU-KIDS online? Are these the same as those reported by MEDIA SMARTS?  Explain your answer. Sampson’s article on the child in 20th-century literature addresses similar themes to those outlined by Hanson regarding children and film. Using the article as a guide, write a short (two-page) analysis of a book you have read recently which represents children or was written for them. Include the title, year, publisher, and illustrator (if any). Borrow freely from Sampson’s process of analysis. (Hint: finding a short illustrated children’s book is a good place to start.) How is this book the same/different from the film, app or video game you analyzed?

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus is presented as the fulfillment of the promises given to the children of Israel. Three specific promises that Jesus fulfilled are the offices of prophet, priest, and king. During the Old Testament, each of these three offices had specific roles and responsibilities to be fulfilled by an appointed member of Israel. With their roles and responsibilities, these offices looked forward to Jesus. Jesus is the perfect and eternal Prophet, Priest, and King, who faithfully fulfills the roles and responsibilities of each office.  Here are your goals for this project: Choose one of the three offices of Christ and write no less than 250 words, explaining what the passages say about Jesus fulfilling that office and how it impacts your life today. Questions to answer: What do the Old Testament passages say about the office you have chosen? What do the New Testament passages say about Jesus fulfilling that office? Why is this fulfillment important? How does this impact your life today? Sources to use: Jesus’ Threefold Office as Prophet, Priest, and King Prophet: Deuteronomy 18:15-22; Matthew 21:10; Mark 1:14-15, 38; John 1:1-2, 14; 6:1-15 Priest: Leviticus 21; Numbers 18; Deuteronomy 16; Matthew 9:1-8; Mark 2:1-12; John 1:14, 18-29; 14:6; 17 King: 2 Samuel 7:1-18; Psalm 2-12; 110:1; Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:1-6; 12:15-32; 21:1-9; Mark 12:35; 15:2; Luke 1:32-33; John 6:15; 7:25-52

This past week, we discussed a number of ways the we can think about religion is associated with education levels int he US. Here is a report dealing with the association between religion and education around the world. Please review the following report (Links to an external site.) This is a report from the PEW research center that surveyed people from all over the world and from many different demographics. It discuses the overall average numbers of years of education and looks at gender as a possible complicating factor. Note- there are many pages to this report, Lets just stick to the overall findings on page 1 for this paper. In this paper (following the same formatting guidelines as always), please do the following- Summary a. Give a brief overview of the findings of the report Discovery b. Do you find anything about the report surprising? Any groups quite a bit higher or lower than you thought? Why do you think that is? Reflection c. Why do you think this information in particular is important for sociologists of religion? Do you think that some religions may emphasize eduction for some groups more than others? Are there benefits to knowing this information in comparison to what we know about the U.S.? Analysis d. What about the social structures in these countries? What do you think explains some countries having higher education compared to lower? Why do you think there are gaps exist by gender? What does it say for a society that some groups have high levels of people with no education at all? What do you think explains the changes by generation? You are welcome to add more sociological reflections to the the paper beyond the minimum, however… be mindful of social contexts. Because one religion might have higher levels of inequality, it doesn’t make that religion good or bad. You are NOT to promote or condemn a particular worldview. Be a scientist, do not use values to judge these things. You are welcome to use external sources to support your discussion, but they must be academic sources and cited correctly.
