Life isn’t
always fair, and people are treated
disrespectfully. Things happen that are out of
our control, or that we do not like. These
lesson plans give your students the opportunity
to explore the notion of unfairness and how to
deal with it.
- It’s Not Fair! - Sometimes
things happen that we do not like, but that
doesn't mean that it was unfair. Using a coin
toss as a springboard, students examine random
events in their lives and recognize that some
things are out of our control and may seem
unfair.
- Fairness: Mind Mapping -
Being fair-minded is important quality to
possess. With this mind-mapping exercise,
students gain a better understanding of what it
means to be fair, just, and balanced.
- Why Me? - Treating others
fairly is a good first step to getting treated
fairly. Students experience how it feels to be
treated unfairly, discuss why it is important to
treat other students fairly, and make a list of
how to respond when they see someone else being
treated unfairly.
- Good Luck/Bad Luck? - Life
isn't always fair. Some things are completely
out of our control. This classroom experience
allows students to explore four specific
scenarios and discuss the unfairness of some
uncontrollable occurrences.
- Rules, Rules, Rules (2
parts) - Students frequently think that
rules are unfair. They seldom stop to consider
the reasons behind the rules. With this lesson
plan, students identify rules with which they do
not agree, and defend the reasons for those
rules.
