Palestinian & Israeli: One Question Two Perspectives

By Mark Holmes

Palestinian & Israeli: One question Two Perspectives

In this ebook you will find ten questions posed twice. One response is from a Palestinian & one from an Israeli. The views are moderate, but perspectives are clearly seen and can provide comparative insights into their respective perspectives. 

By asking these questions to both interviewees, we can compare the nuanced views that exist on either side of the conflict. It is important to approach these conversations with empathy and an open mind, as the answers will reflect deeply held beliefs and experiences shaped by a complex history and challenging realities.

The questions are followed by 10 potential assignments and projects aimed at a grades 9 to 12.

Here is a list of 10 questions that you can ask both a moderate Gazan Palestinian and a moderate Israeli:

  1. Historical Narrative: How do you understand the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and how does that history inform your perspective on the current situation?
  2. Personal Impact: In what ways has the conflict directly affected your life and the lives of those closest to you?
  3. Security Concerns: How do you perceive the issues surrounding security and safety for your community, and what measures do you believe are necessary to improve them?
  4. Political Solutions: What political solution do you envision as being the most fair and sustainable to address the issues of the conflict?
  5. Land and Settlements: What is your stance on the issue of land, settlements, and the right of return for refugees?
  6. International Role: How do you view the role of international actors, such as the United States or the United Nations, in resolving the conflict?
  7. Daily Coexistence: Are there areas of daily life where you see successful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians, and what can be learned from these examples?
  8. Education and Misconceptions: What role do you think education plays in perpetuating or resolving the conflict, and what misconceptions might people on each side have about the other?
  9. Economic Factors: How do you believe the conflict has shaped the economic situation for Palestinians and Israelis, and what economic changes would you propose to support peace efforts?
  10. Vision for Peace: Can you describe your personal vision for peace and how individuals from both societies can contribute to achieving it?

GEOGRAPHY: FUN & FUNNY VALENTINE PRINTABLE CARDS — SOCIAL STUDIES CLASSROOM

By Geography & Math Made Easy

Happy Valentine's Day!

Let your students know you care and put a smile on their faces!

Sometimes, we as teachers are the only ones in their lives to "make it a great day" and are the only ones that can make these special occasions special to them. Your students will love these geography-themed Valentine's Day cards and laugh at the play on words using country names. Your students will have a blast figuring out what each Valentine's card means and sharing them with their classmates.

Examples:

Even if Iran out of rhyme, you would still be my valentine!

(Translation: Even if I ran out of rhyme, you would still be my valentine! In the shape of Iran)

Bolivia or not, you still mean the world to me!

(Translation: Believe it or not, you still mean the world to me! In the shape of BolivIa)

How to Print:

  • Print off Valentine's cards on cardstock and cut out
  • If printed and cut correctly, fit A2 4.3/8 x 5.3/4 envelopes (if you choose to use envelopes)
  • If you wish to or your school district allows, glue or tape a wrapped candy to the card.
  • Do not forget those students who have allergies or eat differently and are dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free, or GMO-free. "Enjoy Life" brand candy, cookies, and treats meet all these requirements.

☑ For secondary, middle school and high school students

What is the Hallyu Wave? Reading Worksheet and Assessment * ELA

By Christa Nonnemaker

This one-page Guided Reading and Assessment is for Grade 6-12 students and can be used in a variety of ways by teachers including close reading, direct instruction, independent practice, homework, or as a sub lesson. This is also well-suited to Homeschooling.

This Guided Reading document provides a description of the worldwide phenomenon known as the Hallyu Wave. This is a quick way to introduce students to the rise of South Korea’s economy through the export of cultural products such as K-pop or K-dramas between 2000 and 2020. The Assessment questions on the second page ask students to identify key concepts and information that they just read. This helps students to strengthen their close reading skills with a topic with which they might have some superficial knowledge. Most students have heard of BTS or other Korean K-pop bands but this text reading gives more historical background as to how South Korean culture has gained global popularity in the past two decades. Most students learn about the Korean War in their World History or US History classes but rarely about anything else relating to Korea. This supplements their understanding of South Korea with a look at a significant post-war development.

This resource includes:

  1. An informative 404-word passage entitled “What is the Hallyu Wave?” The text describes the development of South Korean culture between the years 2000 and 2020.

  2. An Assessment with 9 questions. These involve determining key facts, ideas and vocabulary from the passage and interpreting text. The questions align with Common Core Informational Standards

  3. Three Enrichment Activities that can further an in-class period or for students to complete on their own. These activities are suitable for group or individual work.

  4. An Answer Key with all answers to the questions.

  5. A list of sources for bibliographic reference.

This is also available as a digital resource through Easel so students may complete it online.

Whether the U.S. government should support the French?

  • Students will analyze four individuals; all of whom revealed information about activity within a private or public organization that was deemed illegal, immoral, illicit, unsafe or fraudulent.
  • Students can delve further by referring to the Whistleblower Timeline,  and choosing a whistleblower to research (1700’s to contemporary times). Students will prepare a 3 to 5 minute class presentation.
