Today we had a truly relevant, realistic, just-in-time learning experience with a student who had been on FB during our lesson and told us that there had been an attack on concert goers at Ariana Grande's concert in Manchester.
We stopped what we were doing, searched it class, discussed the issue and possible impact this might have on the experience of refugees if they are blamed.
This student then said, "I can't believe that happened 30 minutes ago Miss. Right when we were learning about sustainability."
Moe mai ra to those who were killed today, and every day. Thank you for opening the eyes of my students and encouraging them to fight harder as activists.
