To ensure that the instructor has a basic understanding of key terms that might come up during the activities or when reading Neha’s book, a Glossary of Key Terms can be found in Appendix I. The topics in this teacher’s guide can be quite intense and challenging for learners to grapple with and think about. It can help to do a fun activity prior to diving into the complex themes presented in these activities, in order to break the ice. In Appendix II we offer a suggested warming up activity that can be used for this purpose. Can we do it? encourages learners to think about how different restrictions change the way in which people are able to complete tasks. In Appendix III, you can find a Quiz and a Crossword Puzzle that can be used as a wrap up after completing the activities in this guide to allow participants to revisit what they have learned. How are the activities connected to The Girl Who Lost Her Country? As stated above, this teaching guide was created to accompany Neha’s book The Girl Who Lost Her Country. Many activities refer to sections of the story, pictures and other resources readily available in the book. To offer your group a full experience of the activities included in this teaching guide, we suggest that participants read the book fully, or at least those parts of the book that are necessary for certain activities. It is also recommended that at least the facilitator has a copy of the physical book which can be ordered online through book sellers. It is also available to download as a free ebook here: http://kids.worldsstateless.org/learn/nehas-story-0. What age groups are the activities suitable for? This teaching guide contains activities for learners between 10-14 years old, i.e. children of upper primary school or the early stages of secondary school. The guide indicates a complexity level for each activity (Level 1-3). However, as children present different levels of development, understanding, interests and learning styles, feel free to try an activity that you feel suits your group. You can also adapt an activity to fit the available time and materials, as well as the size, competence and circumstances of the group. Some activities can also be suitable for younger or older children. You can also take a look at the “Further the Activity” section under each activity and adjust the activity accordingly to fit the needs of older participants. If you are in a school environment, you can also encourage older students to read the book, and then they can facilitate one of the activities for the younger children in the school. 6
