Leader: Please instruct participants to work individually
for the first five minutes. Please keep track of
time and facilitate group discussion for the remaining 10
minutes by moving through participants' answers to each

Our featured
lesson investigated the plight of Palestinian refugees. Working
individually, take five minutes to briefly answer the
following questions:
Why
is it important for students to know about Palestinian refugees?
Why
is it important for students to understand the meaning of
the term "refugee?"
Why
is it important for students to understand competing points
of view?
Choose
another refugee situation elsewhere in the world. How might
this lesson be adapted to explore that situation?
The remaining
10 minutes will be spent in discussing your answers in
a group.
