SSEHV stands for Sathya Sai Education through Human Values, a PSED teaching method in many schools. Based on core human values of Love, Peace, Truth, Non Violence and Right Conduct.
The SSEHV lesson brings on various elements - a quotation to talk about, a warm-up game, a silent sitting/meditation, a story and discussion/questions, a song, and then a game or activity.
This lesson plan has been put together to focus on non-violence, and basic respect of similarities and differences, and what we can learn from the peace loving plant eating dinosaurs.
An image of children holding hands around the world. Could be used as a starting point for similarities and differences; cultural, or new year discussions
