Changemaker's Mission: Voices for Peace

1. What do teachers need to do?

• Register your class participation by clicking on "Request to join." Once registered, start working with your class.
• Guide your students through the 3 steps.
• Help students upload their work to the board (if necessary).
• Make sure they complete and share Activity 2.
• Encourage interaction by commenting on other students' posts.
• Important note: Once you register your class, you can start the next steps at your own pace. The project is designed so you won’t need a video call with Class2Class.org, making it easy and straightforward. We’re here to support you along the way!

• Deadline to post work: May 30, 2025
• Project review: June 2–6
• Certificates available from: June 6

• A downloadable certificate of participation from the platform (if requirements are met)
• A social media mention from Class2Class.org and our newsletter.

• Must post at least one activity to the board
• Activity 2 is mandatory
• Registered classes that do not participate will be removed from the project list.

• Objective: Reflect on what peace means individually and locally.
• Activity 1: Students will respond to the question: “What does peace mean in your daily life?”
• They can express their answer in one of the following ways:
• Write a short paragraph
• Draw a picture
• Record a 30-second video or audio response
• Sharing:
• Students: Upload their responses directly to the project board under the common post titled "Peace Starts With Me."
• Teachers (if needed): If students are unable to post themselves, teachers can upload the responses on their behalf.
• Note: Encourage everyone to comment or react to the posts to promote engagement and create a sense of community.
• Teacher Tip: Introduce the concept of peace with a peace quote, a short story, or a video to inspire students.

• Objective: Learn from each other’s realities and create shared messages of empathy and coexistence.
• Have each class review the posts shared by partner classrooms on the project board.
• In small groups, students will identify similarities and differences between their own culture and the one shared by their partner class (based on Activity 1).
• Activity 2: Based on their reflections, students will create a peace message. This can be presented in any of the following ways:
• Video
• Poster
• Digital card
• If students create a message by hand, they should take a photo with their final product.
• All final products (digital or photos) should be uploaded and shared on the project board.
• Teacher Tip: Provide students with sentence starters to inspire their peace messages, such as:
• “We believe respect is important because...”
• “Together, we can build peace...”

• Objective: Commit to concrete peaceful actions.
• Activity 3: Students will write a personal "Peace Commitment"—a specific action they pledge to take to promote peace in their daily lives.
• Examples include: standing up against bullying, helping a neighbor, or speaking kindly online.
• Sharing:
• Commitments can be posted on the project board so that others can read and be inspired by them.
• Optional:
• You may contact one of the participating teachers to organize a 20-minute online celebration with your partner class. During this session, students can read their commitments or share one or two final project creations

Assessment and reflection

• Use a simple reflection form (3 questions):
• What did I learn about peace from others?
• What inspired me most?
• How will I continue being a peacebuilder?
• Teachers can assess based on participation, creativity, and collaborative spirit.
