How the Assembly Unfolds 

In the show itself, you and your students will experience: 

• Music and everyday scenes of China, Russia, Afghanistan, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, and Mexico. These are mostly a subset of places I've been. It allows views of countries large and small, rich and poor, from various continents.
• The idea that around the world, people have much in common, sharing similar needs, desires, and emotions. Students are enrolled in a game to seek out these similarities - to become aware of, sensitive to, what people have in common.
• On stage simulations which physically depict population densities, food supplies, and energy consumption of these areas, and may clearly depict immigration issues too.
• The key idea that once we can see the similarities of ourselves to peoples far away, we can better recognize our relationship to our classmates, schoolmates, neighbors, and family. Peace begins with each of us, and how we treat each other locally. 

1WOW is a full day program - allowing time for the presenter or other staff leaders at your school to meet after the assemblies with students in their classes for the balance of the day. This Lesson is shown as  a PDF file. If you can not open this file, download a free copy of Adobe Software. It can help the dynamic of how peers treat each other.
