Idea form session

Session 1:
I liked the game we played at the end ( when each one took a piece of paper ) it showed how people have different experiences and opportunities based on their backgrounds... Some moved ahead while others stayed behind, highlighting the challenges and inequalities faced by different groups. It was a reminder of the importance of understanding and supporting diversity in our communities.

Session 2:
I wasn't in the class at that date but as i read i can say that : 
- People justify war based on their own situations and perspectives, which shows how views can change depending on the context.
- There are many definitions of peace, and they often depend on the time and situation we’re in.
- Different perspectives in war highlight how people see things differently, and it shows how complex conflicts can be.


Session 3: 
If we only have technical challenges then we would only need authoritative leaders..
Us as teacher, we shouldn’t just follow a set formula; we should create unique and meaningful lessons, like a chef designing a special dish as we say today.
We know we’re doing what’s best for students specially when they are active, improving, feeling supported, and learning skills they can use for life.

Session 4:

Building strong relationships between teachers and students helps kids learn better. Trauma can hurt a child's growth, so it's important to create safe spaces where they feel secure. Involving parents in their children's education supports emotional and social development, especially when schools respect their cultures. Children need basic things like safety and support, but each child may need different help. Teaching important life skills, like problem-solving and managing emotions, is crucial, and teachers can do this through fun activities. Finally, kids learn from their environment, so caring places help them understand how to take care of themselves and others. Overall, these ideas highlight the importance of relationships, understanding trauma, family involvement, and skill-building in helping children grow.

Session 5 : 

How important it is to include different perspectives in education.

International schools help students respect various cultures. The video that we watched shows that sticking to one story can create stereotypes and misunderstandings.

Teachers have to share multiple viewpoints in the classroom. This helps students learn more and prepares them for a connected world. By valuing diversity, we can help students understand different experiences and become caring for global citizens.

Session 6:

essential connections and their impact on our lives. Identifying examples from my own experiences helped me appreciate how knowledge, identity, and support systems enrich my personal and professional growth.We also discussed various scenarios, highlighting the importance of empathy in building relationships with students. Each situation showed how understanding and addressing students' needs fosters a supportive classroom environment.

Session 7 : 

being "able" and "willing." It was clear that having the skills (able) is just as important as being motivated (willing). I realized that as a teacher, I need to help students develop both their abilities and their desire to learn.

We shared ideas on how to motivate students and create a supportive environment. This session reminded me that combining skills and motivation is key to effective learning.

Reflective Response Journal Assignment

 1-  What messages did I receive growing up about peace? Growing up in Lebanon, I often heard stories about the importance of peace. My parents would talk about the need for people from different backgrounds to live together peacefully. They explained how, despite Lebanon’s history of conflict, we should focus on understanding and accepting one another especially that we live in a country that had many different religions. They believed that peace starts with respecting others, no matter their religion or culture, and that it was important for our generation to build a better, more united future... 2-In the context of social identity, what messages did I receive growing up about what it meant to be a member of my gender, racial/ethnic, religious group, and socioeconomic class?

Hard work and education were emphasized as the path to imp...

Action Peace

13th of October During my lesson, i wanna pick a moment to pause the game and ask each student to give a high-five to someone else in the class.  I wanna encourage them to say something supportive like : Great effort or Nice job .. as they do it. This quick activity promotes positive, connection, and teamwork, fostering a sense of peace and unity in the class. 14th of October In my gymnastics lesson on balance, I had the girls give a high-five and say something nice like "Great job!" after each turn to try it...  It was a fun way to boost teamwork and make everyone feel connected and happy and was amazing . tomorrow i wanna try a "Compliment Circle" at the end of the lesson.
