Resources

In early level, exploring themes around being unique, similar and different is a great place to build understanding of
acceptance.

Books like Elmer and Rainbow Fish are a great place to start. Create artworks celebrating diversity and inclusion.

In first level, begin to think about what racism is, why it is wrong and how kindness can help to build positive and respectful relationships. Resources such as ‘‘Acceptance is my Superpower’’ and ‘Little People Big Dreams’ may act as a stimulus to introduce these themes.

At second level, when thinking about contemporary issues of race and attitudes towards refugee’s, a great place to start is this Glasgow Girls Poem.

Other class novels which may be useful include The Boy at the Back of the Class.
