A sequence of 5 lesson prompts for delivering 5 weeks of Philosophy for Children (P4C) exploring issues of freedom, liberty & free will. Sequence starts with an animal forced to perform in the circus; then 2 very different types of 'working' animal (which will challenge children's perceptions of different animals being 'worth' different amounts); from that into human freedom via slavery & imprisonment.
My year 6 group loved these, and came up with some fascinating ideas and views from these prompts, when delivered in this order over 5 weeks.
