Harmony Day and Harmony Week are held each year in March and they are a great chance to focus on civics education activities, inclusion, diversity and racism - but sometimes it's hard to find the real learning content for all the cute arts and crafts activities! This year, are you looking for something more than cute Harmony Day coloring pages to do with your older students in life skills, transition and vocational classes? Why not encourage them to think more deeply about positive change, civics and eliminating racism in their community?
 
Around the world, March 21st is the United Nations Day for the Elimination of Racism. In Australia, it is celebrated as Harmony Day and included within Harmony Week. If you are looking to move beyond the colouring pages and craft activities with older students, why not take a deeper dive into Harmony Day and learn how it can still hold meaning and be a time for positive civics action and change in our community.
 
What's inside?
The slideshow includes 30 slides with information and activities to complete.

This is an editable slideshow, so it is easy for you to adjust the content and activities to suit your own learners and context. You can turn the audio on or off, and edit the text to suit your preferences.
