MLP #2 - The Ripple Effect - How do my wants impact others?

Grade Level:
12
Subject:
Biology
Topic:
SBI4U - How do our wants for materialistic items have a ripple effect on other people, their lives and their basic human right to live in a safe and healthy environment
Objective:
Students will reflect on everyday items which they deem important to them. They will share these items as a class. They will then take part in an activity which builds their understanding on how human wants/desires can have an effect on other humans, animals or the environment; similar to what a ripple effect is (an effect from an initial state can be followed outwards incrementally). This will promote student thought and reflection on how our desire for materialistic items does impact other people, whether it be their human rights, their health, or the environment in which they reside. A poster project with gallery walk will encourage student reflection on items they deem important to their daily lives and the ways in which these items have a negative or positive impact on people, animals and the environment.
