Mr Tumba's Activities

Gr 4 students have their individual laptops. They agreed to use WordPress to create their blogs. I’m guiding them through the process and I’m confident they’ll very independent very soon. Here’s a photo of the “instruction time”. Everybody put your lid down and listen.

Tutsis and Hutus fight each other for centuries. But the war between them have made thousands of victims in both Rwanda and the Congo. As an extension to their learning activities, 4B students invited me to talk about this Tutsi – Hutu conflict and how it impacts on innocent lives in the Congo. This video shows the major stages of the conflict. Click on the picture

I was invited to talk to Gr.4 students about children’s rights. I tell them stories from the African Child’s perspective. In fact I talked about my experience during one of the Congo Wars. Students were captivated by the different aspects of the story. They wrote reflections in their blogs. I read a few of them and that’s how I knew how inspiring the story was to them. As an example, follow these links to see what they said.
