Dreamlandia:Building support networks for a school for all “Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away, and that in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty.” Martin Luther King “The greatest and noblest pleasure which men can have in this world is to discover new truths; and the next is to shake off old prejudices.” Frederick the Great “It demands great spiritual resilience not to hate the hater whose foot is on your neck, and an even greater miracle of perception and charity not to teach your child to hate.” James Arthur Baldwin “In the end antiblack, antifemale, and all forms of discrimination are equivalent to the same thing - antihumanism.” Shirley Chisholm

Our Cooperative Story (available in the twinspace)
Procedure Stage 1: Students are out into groups of equal numbers (where possible) Stage 2: Students are told to tear a page from their exercise books and write the following sentences on it: Title: Dreamlandia:Where dreams come true They are asked to write the following introductory sentence: “Do you believe in the power of the falling stars?” Johnny asked his teacher. “Of course no”, she answered. “Do you believe in wishes coming true?” Stage 3: The students are instructed to continue the story by writing the next sentence (s). They are told to use ideas from the discussions nade on exclusion/discrimination, the posters they made and the movie they watched. Stage 4: The students are told to give their piece of paper to the students on their left. They should now continue the (new) story they have in front of them by writing the next sentence. The procedure is repeated until the papers have gone round the whole group.
Procedure Stage 5: The stories are now returned to their originators (by passing the papers to the student on the left).The students read the resulting tales to the rest of the class and the best story is chosen for the project. Note:Students are not asked to write a concluding sentence, since the partners will continue the story. Stage 6:The story is continued by the partners. It is published in the twinspace, downloaded and read by the students of each partner school. Students also prepare drawings which are added to the story. Stage 7: Students are told to write the concluding part, following the same procedure, as presented above.
