• In order to pull in global education for this standard I would have students research an issue that affects citizens of a specific location. This topic would be researched and presented in an unbiased, objective manner, yet after this part is complete, I would have the students explore the issue through the lens of a person that is directly affected by this issue. They would have to persuade their audience through writing why the issue is harmful as well as give a plan of action to help combat this particular topic.

• Students will research a topic of their choice and discover what countries and communities are affected by their particular issue. All different perspectives will be explored.

• Students will research a particular cultural group they are interested in and find a folktale that has been passed down from generation to generation. After reading through this folktale, they will orate the tale to group members as well as give a brief presentation on what that culture is all about. Students will then write their own folktale, basing their plot off of what they have learned from that particular culture.

• Students will research a culture of interest. Students will read multiple folktales to get an idea of how to write their own original tale.

• Students will orate, write, research, and present.
