Dreaming Of Equality

Ask students to put their ideas about equality on paper in an activity called “A Penny For Your Thoughts.” Throughout the month, encourage students to write wishes about equality and drop them into a “wishing well” with a penny. On the morning announcements, read the best thoughts of the previous day. Also, gather the pennies to donate to an organization fighting for equality. And sell bracelets, such as the “Yes We Can/ I Have A Dream” Silicone Bracelets or “Together We Make One World” Silicone Bracelets, to further raise money for the group of your choice.
