This movement-focused lesson introduces students to the concept of bystander intervention. Learners practice how to respond to discriminatory acts and advocate for themselves and others. This lesson goes beyond addressing bullying and encourages students to think deeply on the topic of equity and respond through with a safe, informed and action-oriented approach. A new, fun, interactive approach to teaching this topic!

In this interactive lesson, students are exposed to the concept of discrimination and the BC Human Rights Code. We will engage students through a role-play game to build understanding of discrimination. Students will gain a better understanding of how BC Human Rights laws protect them and how to identify discrimination when and if it arises in their lives. Get students learning out of their seats!

Logic reasoning is vital for students to learn but can be dry to teach. We have developed a new, fun, way to engage students to critically think and develop their logic skills. In this lesson, learners will practice logical reasoning in the context of language and literature studies. Built around a murder mystery short story, this lesson introduces students to argument building through the use of inferences and the gathering of evidence.
Good for: ELA 7-12 students, Law Studies
