Chatterbox – conversation starters 1
Chatterboxes can be used as conversation starters in the classroom. We use them in Peacemaker circles. Play a game to mix up everyone in the class and then give a chatterbox to groups of 4 children. Let them play a few rounds and have a discussion, then gather their thoughts and ideas.
Learning for Peace
Learning for Peace is a holistic approach covering peace in four main themes of peace – peace with myself, peace between us, peace among us and peace in the world.
Circle Mayhem
A mixing game – not as crazy as it sounds!
