BUILD-UP ACTIVITIES:

16

First Activity:

The teacher asks the group to separate in 2 groups as A and B. “A group after a while you will leave on a trip. That’s why you should prepare your suitcases. Where would you like to travel and what would you put inside the suitcase” are questions she asks them. After this, B group is asked to perform where would they go and what did they put inside their suitcases. The teacher tells the second group to watch carefully as the first group performs. Some time will be given to both of the groups to prepare for their performances. As they start their performances both of the groups have to guess where have they gone and what have they put inside the suitcases.

Children have to create groups of six and each one of them has to be either A or B. All A’s and B’s will have to sit close to each other in an airplane

19

After a while we will depart. The A’s are sat in the window side, while the B’s on the corridor side.

20

The A’s goal is to read the whole book throughout all the flight. As for the B’s their goal is to have a very nice conversation with the A’s as where they’re heading to.

21
  • All groups performances are ended using the “photography frame” technique
  • During the performances the teacher gets involved as a stewardess.
  • After the performances they talk about the conversation between A’s and B’s and the way they talked, what did they do convince each other and how did they feel during persuasion.
  • The ones who came up with different kind of solutions comment based on those solutions.

22

Second Activity:

After the first activity is over, we pass to the second one to draw the attention on the individual differences. We have a character named Mehmet. He’s an albino and genetically his hair and skin are white. That’s why he’s different from all his other friends. Because of this, his friends make fun of him, they give him nicknames. One day a friend while making fun and enjoying, Mehmet couldn’t stand any longer, so he starts a fight with his friend and end up going to the administration. After the teacher finishes reading the situation to the children, they start sharing roles. The event is based on the directors room, in the classroom where the students make fun of Mehmet, a friend fighting with Mehmet, Mehmet’s family coming to school and so on.

23

Stages:

  • While Mehmet and his friend wait in front of the door of the director’s office, students chosen to perform the inner voices get involved as well. After the voices the students get in the room and start talking
  • Other students can join in while at the director’s room.
  • The teacher gets involved in the other part of the class as a gossiper.
  • Mehmet’s family and after the talks, Mehmet starts thinking about his past and the groups of six which were created before, they get together and perform Mehmet’s thought using the “Photography Frame”.
  • After the performances, children stand in front of each other by forming the consciousness hallway. Mehmet and his friend start walking through the hallway.
  • In the end, Mehmet and his friend will be sat in the “Hot Chair” and the class is going to ask questions about the character.
24

EVALUATION:

25

The groups while performing will be able to solidify what they did right and correct what they did wrong. From each group a child with the main role will be sat at the chair and questions will be directed based on the character he/she performed etc. In the end to test if the outcomes have been reached, the teacher asks the children if there were any point or situations based on the outcomes and after listening to all the answers, another debate can be raised up and the children can be asked to add their comments whether they can find creative solutions.
