"Everything is connected" came to these writers as they first sought to create curriculum around issues of "sweatshops" and "child labor." The book includes background readings, lesson plans, teaching articles, role plays and simulations, student handouts, interviews, poems, cartoons, annotated resource lists, and teaching ideas. Articles and activities are geared for upper elementary students through high-school aged and older. Some can be adapted. Chapters are titled: Legacy of Inequality: Colonial Roots; The Global Economy: Colonialism Without Colonies; Global Sweatshops; Kids for Sale: Child Labor in the Global Economy; Just Food; and Culture, Consumption, and the Environment. We used an activity from here for a Bible School workshop on housing--working with the idea of many starting with less and some starting with more, and where does it lead? (Where might it lead?)
