Who Do We Think We Are? Week: 22 to 28 June 2009
Exploring identity, diversity and citizenship across the curriculum.
The 'Who Do We Think We Are? Week' Project was launched recently to engage primary and secondary school teachers in the exploration of issues relating to identity, diversity and citizenship with their pupils. The project draws on subjects including geography, citizenship, history and religious education and particularly explores the themes of:
- School and community
- Relationships, belonging and faith
- History and settlement
- Britishness, national identity/values and the 2012 Games.
Teachers can access www.wdwtwa.org.uk for starter activities, case studies, tool kits, guidance and ideas on how they can take part in 'Who Do We Think We Are? Week this year. Further information about the project can be obtained by contacting the project officer at wdwtwa@rgs.org.
If you would like some ideas to help your school celebrate Who Do We Think We Are? Week, why not search for resources using topics such as 'identity', 'diversity and inclusion' or 'black history'?
