1 Evie Rastas Promoting Understanding Through the Use of Refugee Themed Children s Literature
2 - Shooting in Orlando UofA Study Group - Developing a Pedagogy of Social Justice Through Postcolonial Literature. - Interest in how to use post colonial children s literature to help promote understanding among our students. - Last years topic: - Syrian Refugee Crisis - Immigration Experience Things that came up during the year that students could relate to: - Fort McMurray Fire
3 Demographics Not many refugee students but lots of immigrant families who saw themselves in the books we used. Some of their parents were refugees.
4 Windows and Mirrors These books serve a dual function, to educate all children about the experience of persecution, flight and resettlement, as well as reassuring refugee readers that there is new life and hope for the future in an adopted country" (Hope, 2007, p.7).
5 Introducing Social Justice in the Classroom - Started with On A Plate: A Story About Privilege comic strip by Toby Morris - Story of two different individuals that had different upbringings (rich vs. poor) - Moved into using picture books - Use of some videos about poverty and discussed where we see poverty in our city and how we can help. - Moving from Me to We Personal connections made before we dove into the topic of refugees. The reason for this was so that students would be able to empathize and gain more of an understanding of what those students might have been dealing with.
6 In the Classroom - Introduced topic with Brothers in Hope: The Story of the Lost Boys of Sudan - Linked with a read aloud A Long Walk to Water - Three grade five classes Sudan - Three books used (Amina s Blanket, Drita my Homegirl, Mud City) - Literature Groups Kosovo Afghanistan
7 Mud City - Helped kids understand about what a refugee is and their experience. - Students were able to start drawing parallels to their own lives (Windows and Mirrors) I learned that refugee camps are full of people but they don t have enough resources for everyone so lots of people are there with nothing. -Grade Five Student I think Mud City is an inspiring book. It inspires people to persevere. - Grade Five Student
8 Difficult Topics Covered - Death (lion, uncle killed) - Acid thrown on a woman s face - Refugee Camps Girls are downgraded Shauzia knew she wouldn t be successful at finding a job so she dressed up as a boy. -Grade 5 Student - Girls not allowed to attend school Not one gender is more superior than the other. - Grade 5 Student I was really shocked because I really wouldn t believe this was actually happening in the world. - Grade 5 Student
9 Goal: Promoting Understanding - Articles brought into the classroom (Taliban, women s rights) It s not every single person in that religion, it s the people who are extreme not everyone is extreme. - talking about the Taliban forcing Islam on the people It s a good world because we re all different. I think they kinda need that lesson. - talking about people of different religions and the orlando shooting
10 Don t be Afraid - You ll never feel comfortable using books with difficult topics/messages unless you take the plunge and try it. - Students will suprise you. Reading these books makes me want to persevere and reach my goals. - Grade 5 Student
11 Prepare Yourself - Make sure you have pre-read the books - What topics do I want to cover with the kids? - What topics might come up? - How will I broach these topics?
