This activity aims to have students express their ideas on human rights (gender equality, children rights…).

Materials and Preparation
This activity does not require any materials or preparation.

Procedure
1 Divide students into groups of five or six. Tell students that a new planet has been discovered
recently. It is identical to Earth in terms of environment and wildlife, but no humans have ever been
to or lived on this new planet.
2 Ask them to decide on the name of the new planet and make a list of 10 human rights that should
be protected by law.
3 Encourage each group to introduce their planet to the class, and explain the reasons for the 10
rights they have chosen.

12 Reshape Life

This activity aims to help students to express their ideas on human rights (gender equality, children
rights…), discuss the problems they noticed in a visual material, and make suggestions to reform the
existing situations. It also helps them to be aware of how to analyze and synthesize real-life problems.

Materials and Preparation

Photocopy the worksheet on page 70 and cut it into three separate, Group A, Group B and Group C
worksheets for each group.

Procedure

1 Put the class into three groups, A, B and C. Hand out the ‘Group A worksheet’ to the students in
Group A, the ‘Group B worksheet’ to the students in group B and the ‘Group C worksheet’ to the
students in group C.
2 Point out to students that they are going to discuss the problems in the photo and what kinds of
precautions should be taken to eliminate the problems. Remind them that each group member will
express their opinions on the problem and deficiencies in the photo.
3 Ask them to reshape the photo drawing the deficiencies that they think should be in it and write an
effective motto/slogan on the photo. Tell them that they can change some items in the photo with
simple touches, such as the bricks in the photo B can be changed to the books. Let them present
their reshaped photos to the class expressing their ideas on human rights.
