So you value peace, compassion, inclusion and<br />

social justice, and you're stoked about starting<br />

a <strong>Peacemakers</strong> project in your school, but<br />

you're not sure how to start? It's easy! The first<br />

step is to start talking to students and teachers<br />

to find some like-minded people. Projects can<br />

be started by either a class or an after school<br />

group. We have primary and secondary level<br />

lessons and either one can be completed in<br />

less than one hour. The primary workshop is<br />

aligned with Ontario Ministry of Education<br />

curriculum guidelines for the grade six social<br />

studies course and the secondary workshop is<br />

aligned with the grade twelve equity course.<br />

Let Everyone Know<br />

Make announcements, put up posters and<br />

publish a newsletter to let people know that<br />

you're putting a group together. The first page<br />

of this package gives a pretty good overview of<br />

what a <strong>Peacemakers</strong> project is all about!<br />

Have a Meet ing<br />

Once you've formed a group have a meeting<br />

to talk about the program as well as<br />

PeaceWorks and MCC's peace work. Then<br />

brainstorm ideas for your project!<br />
