The Primary Kit, for children 7 to 10 years old, uses the UN's principles and activities to foster cooperation, caring and consensus in the classroom. Topics covered include rainforests, recycling, the UN Charter, refugees, and disarmament. Teachers of history and language to teachers of math, music and geography will find easy to use lesson plans covering important topics such as biodiversity, tolerance, women's rights and immunization. Activities encourage students to take action. Themes such as tolerance, development and peace are studied from a theoretical, as well as a practical perspective.
Activities encourage students to apply their knowledge and understanding to their own environment.
Units on science and technology highlight an often neglected aspect of the United Nations work.
