Page 21

activity one

Divide the class into groups of four, making sure that those from whom you have taken something are in different groups. Let them do question 1 on worksheet 8 page 22 Whose is it anyway? Discuss in groups why they feel some actions are worse than others and what is being felt by the victims of your "theft". Their findings should be recorded on the worksheet under question 2.

Next let them read resource sheet 3 on page 24 You can't let them get into your life and answer question 3 on the worksheet.

Don't forget to give back the things you took!

activity two

Make groups of two or three people. Let them take a walk around the building and mark on a plan of the school the areas where there is: a) graffiti b) litter and c) broken objects.

On returning to the classroom, they should discuss in their groups and write their answers to these questions which could be written on the board.

1. Why do these things happen?
2. What can be done about improving the situation?
3. What is your group prepared to do about it?

activity three

For this activity worksheet 8 page 22 will be needed.

The class could draw up a code of practice in terms of respect for other people and their property One way could be to divide into small groups to decide on five guidelines they are all willing to follow, which can be written down on the worksheet. Pool these ideas and draw up a ten point code of practice for the whole class. If the class has already drawn up a code of practice under R3M1 these ten points could be added. They may also decide there should be sanctions for those who deliberately fail to keep the code. If so they need to draw these up together.
