In order to promote a sense of self-worth and acceptance of others, a Grade 8 activity for either History or Geography could involve researching and presenting on a significant historical or geographical figure from a diverse background. Learners could be encouraged to choose someone who represents a different language, religion, gender, class, or ethnic group than themselves, and to explore their contributions to society. This activity would allow learners to gain a deeper understanding of diverse perspectives and to appreciate the value of different cultures and backgrounds.
