ICE BREAKER pop groups

(0)
I use this as an ice breaker with all sorts of adult groups as the pop stars are a bit out of date for younger people. I have used this as a word procesing exercise giving them the story to in put the answers on the screen rather than by hand. It also works well when used in a class and split into groups for a speed game.

Equality & Diversity newspaper cuttings

Equality & Diversity newspaper cuttings

(6)
These are articles from various newspapers that I use when starting a class on Equality and Diversity issues. It is interesting to print them out, get them in the middle of the table and get everyone to read them and discuss. I then pose questions like, why do you think that newspaper published that article? Who do you believe in the story? Can you always trust what you read? Is there another side of the story?
