Exploring <strong>Equality</strong><br />
What does equality in society mean<br />
in practice?<br />
Learning Intentions<br />
Students will look at concrete<br />
examples <strong>of</strong> where people are<br />
treated the same or differently<br />
in society<br />

complexity <strong>of</strong> society's<br />
responses to diversity.<br />
Resources<br />
<br />
Copies <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Equality</strong> or<br />
Inequality? worksheet on<br />
pages 56-57. You will need one<br />

Activity one<br />
Equal or Not?<br />
Give each group a copy <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Equality</strong> or Inequality?<br />
worksheet <strong>and</strong> ask them to discuss each <strong>of</strong> the examples<br />
given using the questions on the sheet.<br />
When the groups have finished the discussion, ask each<br />
group to present their thinking on two <strong>of</strong> the examples.<br />
Finally, ask each group to think about the last two classes<br />
<strong>and</strong> to come up with a statement about what equality<br />
means. This can be one sentence or several. If there is not<br />
enough time to do this during class, it could be done for<br />
homework <strong>and</strong> shared at the beginning <strong>of</strong> the next class by<br />
putting up the statements on the wall.<br />
