We, the world
A1-size wall map, three A3-size posters, a set of mock letters from each child, activity sheets and teachers’ notes.
Survival International has compiled extensive information for the teacher on lives of the Yanomami, Ba-aka and the Chukchee peoples and the three children who are central to the pack.
It consists of an A1-size poster of the world with insets on eight tribal peoples. Three of these are featured in A3-size posters with beautiful photographs. As a means of engaging with the tribal children a sequence of mock letters is provided for each. The language level and motivational power would make this material applicable for less able secondary pupils.
