The lesson “Advocating for the Welfare of Others” further develops the children’s self and social awareness, related to respecting and helping others in the community. The children will learn to define the word ‘advocate,’ and contextually determine at least three situations where they may use the opportunity to advocate for another individual. Each child will share how he or she would engage in advocacy in the situations brainstormed together as a class. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 9-11 years, and is the 33rd lesson in the 2nd year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Community Awareness” unit.
