Try this website - it's been very helpful to me. Look at the SCHOOL state-wide testing results, teacher/student ratios, how small classes are, how many children attend, and sometimes, even the school websites.\n\nGood luck!\n\nMichelle

First you enlarge pictures of different people from different backgrounds, either from magazines, photos etc. You place the pictures (A4 size) face down, each student picks a picture.  Give them about 8-10mins to write a short description of the person. Take back the pictures and place them all face upwards on the floor, each person reads their description and another students picks the picture described. You can ask them: How do you know, that's the right picture.\nBut, before all this, you have to warm up with descriptive words, for example: long hair, short hair, black, blonde, red, brunette. Complexion is either dark or fair, never use black, white, yellow , brown or red, politically incorrect and not very nice to describe a race by a colour wouldn't you say.\nI have used this in the classroom. It's fun. Get as many different people/faces as possible.  Good luck.

OK, I'll give this a stab. Once upon a time, I taught upper elementary school in a inner city that is now far, far away. A report on NPR's marketplace inspired me to put together a unit on toys. \n\nI began by reading the short story "The Lesson" by Tony Cade Bambara aloud to the students. In the story, a "nappy-headed woman" with too much education and no makeup takes a group of kids from Harlem to the toy store FAO Schwartz in Manhattan. By doing this, she shows them that there's a world outside their Harlem neighborhood, and in this world, they don't have much power or money. The narrator--one of the Harlem kids--is angry, really angry at the woman who taught her this lesson.\n\n"You know," said one of my former students about a year later, "We hated you just like those kids in the story hated that woman."\n\n"I know," I said. By then I had learned that if you tell kids they are any kind of disadvantaged, even if you do so by telling them you grew up disadvantaged, too, they will hate you for it. \n\nBut I wasn't done with the unit. I had discussion questions for them to write about, and one of them was "Who are the people who buy the toys at FAO Schwartz?" The kids' answers were mostly some variation of "rich people".\n\nNext up, I had them go home and look at the "Made in" tags on three of their own toys, or those of a sibling, neighbor, or cousin if they were "too old" for toys. Actually, this was also a way out for kids who couldn't afford to own three toys.\n\nThe next day we compiled the results of our survey. I did that because I had two different figures for the percentage of toys made in China, and I wanted them to participate in gathering our own data: primary research. Some of the kids had obviously not done their research, but I included their made up answers (like "Made in Africa") anyway. Our results showed a percentage in between the two percentages I had from my research. In all three cases, we had figures that showed more than half the toys sampled were made in China.\n\nNext, I prepared them for an article I'd adapted from the newspaper by bringing in maps and coffee table books about China. I showed them, for example, terraces on the sides of mountains and a photograph of people in western Sichuan province with 100 pound tubs of manure on their backs, preparing to hike five miles into the mountains to lay manure on their fields.\n\nAt this point, I always asked the small group I was showing this particular photograph a question. Given a choice, would they rather come to school, read some stories, do some science, work some math problems, have recess, lunch, and maybe computer class, or would they rather hike five miles into the mountains with a hundred-pound tub of manure on their backs?\n\nWell, most of them would rather come to school. But there was always one or two who would say, "Give me the tub of manure."  These are your "kinesthetic learners", the kids who learn best by moving. In one case the kid was also a student with a high naturalistic intelligence (who happened to be born into a family with no interest in nature) and a truancy problem. I often think of that kid, and how happy he would be if he lived where I live now. \n\nAs a general rule, kinesthetic learners are more likely to be put in special ed, to drop out of school, and to end up in jail. They are the group of students that we as educators fail the most. And by fail, I mean we don't do right by them.\n\nAnyway, in the next part of the lesson, my students were to read an article I'd adapted from The Washington Post. The article told the story of a teenager who had travelled from western Sichuan province to the Special Economic Zone of Shenzhen, outside Hong Kong. \n\nIt explained how she'd gotten a job in a toy factory as a sort of human conveyor belt, moving partially manuf

Make the dominant peer pressures positive.\nStrongly positive school ethos, engagement of school with pupils lives and experiences, involvement with the local community.\nSchools can be very influencial places that promote strong allegiances.

Probably the kind in the syllabus.  You can probably get an idea on-line by searching for information on that class on the school's website.

I just recently graduated..... is it popular? I don't know.\nAnyhow, here's the classes.\nThe "losers"/rejects, the goths, the rednecks, smart kids/geeks, band kids, sports stars and their girlfriends, the druggies (which also fit in the last category), skaters and the tough kids.\nI was a highschool band geek and smart kid. Smart kids had a higher social standing (barely) to the banders, bc they could actually be of profit to other social classes.\nI wouldn't change, all my best friends are in my "class" and most people liked me.

Oh my, there are so many.  What aspect of education do you mean?  Do you want to know about standards, testing, reading skills, technology, special education, learning disabilities, bullying, achievement, conseling, teaching jobs, tutoring, school districts, math, mainstreaming, activities for elementary students, IEPs, science fair topics, homework help for your kids, high school, university entrance requirements, and the list goes on.  See what I mean??\n\nI would suggest you think aobut exactly what it is you want to find out about in education, and then do a search for that specifically.\n\nInthe meantime I've attached a few websites that might help you.  I hope this makes sense to you.

Give a few examples of things u think would help better the school and tell your fellow students how u woudl go about geting those things achieved. Dont try to sound nice cause they want go-getters. Sounds sincere as possible. And please be honest. u Have an ok sketch. Do something, or wear something to spice it up. STAND OUT!

Stereotyping is when you form a fixed idea or image of a group of people, then you assume that everyone in the group will behave or be the same (while you may only meet only one person or a few people from the group).\n\nDiscrimination is somewhat similar to Stereotyping, but this one is more like a comparison between/ among groups. Then one group will be treated differently from another.\n\nTo me, stereotyping is just a whole idea of a group of people, for example, when we think of a person from a country, we will think of how 'people' from that country is like. Can be bad and good, but no comparison (I think). And it is more on culture, tradition and beliefs that people in a country have followed, so that others know that these are unique to whom.\n\nOr it can be a famous school/ college. Students in a famous school is stereotyped as a smart person no matter how really smart he/she is.\n\nFor discrimination, we see often. In some countries, people discriminate against women but in favour of men. Or racial discrimination.\n\nI think this is it... but perhaps you can also check more on the Internet.. There should be the info somewhere..\n\nLink below may help :)
