Rights of the Child

From 1 out of 7 Hungry

This week we have spent time discussing the rights of every child, beginning with the right to food. In class we listened to a helpful introductory song and video. We also read a powerful book called For Every Child by Caroline Castle. The three first grade classes got together for a visual demonstration with pretend food, showing how one seventh of the world's population does not have enough food to eat. We discussed how children felt about this and some of the ways people can help.We also applied our new logging on skills to the laptops and learned about the importance of food through PebbleGo. Feel free to follow the links above and the PebbleGo link on the side of the blog to visit this material again with your child.
