Mini-Lesson for Far From Bashar
In this mini-lesson, students are invited to critically reflect on the many faces of crisis and how it is a part of the human experience, in addition to thinking about how we can cope. Students are first asked to make connections with the key concept and the family they encounter in the film. Subsequently, their assumptions about refugees are challenged before finally engaging affectively with the core themes of this lesson. Through individual reflection, pair work and whole-class discussion, these activities will support students so that they can engage deeply with the guiding question: How do we cope with change and crisis?
