| Reviews: "In a world of increasing connectivity, it is important that our students are aware of the many races, religions and realities that people the world over face. "If the World Were a Village" takes a complicated subject and puts it into terms that can easily be understood and explored. The video and book create connections to the world at large, have a place in the curriculum in social studies, math and language, and would be of interest to students from grade 2 up to grade 6 and beyond. I cannot recommend it highly enough!" - Peggy Thomas, President, Ontario School Library Association "A wonderful introduction to the realities of our global situation - who we are, what we speak, what we believe, and what we can expect in the future. By reducing the concept into a "village" it is possible to create an understanding of the diversity of ideas, beliefs and cultures that is our world with the hope of building understanding and bringing peace. (Recommended for all grades.)" - Be The Change, OSLA. |
