Lesson Plans

Refugee issues can be incorporated into the curriculum in many different ways.

Here you can download lesson plans for 9-11 years, 12-14 years and 15-18 years for the following subjects:

Each unit comes with a unit plan that shows the teacher at a glance the sequence of the lessons, their objectives, content, the teaching method/learning strategies involved, and the related resources which are available on this website, as well as further suggested readings for the teacher. Although the lessons are arranged in units, some lessons stand on their own, and so could be taught without their partner lessons.

The lesson plans are not prescriptive, but provide interested teachers starting points for lesson preparation. Teachers can integrate these ideas into their own programmes or schemes of work.
