Here are some curricular resources regarding children and youth rights in general. 

 

Materials developed by Jennifer Douglas-Larsson, Boulder High School teacher, for her AVID class

Included are a scavenger hunt around the Wiki site and activities that make child-friendly cities relevant to local youth.

A Building Block Towards Child Friendly Cities

This Canadian document has ten ready-to-use lesson plans.  There are adaptations for ELL and youth with special needs.  It also has a version of the UNCRC in child-friendly language.  I highly recommend this document!

 

Needs, Rights, Wants activity

In these activities students explore the idea that people’s basic needs are considered rights, and see the link between rights and responsibilities. It includes a one-page summary of the UNCRC.  (This was also developed for Canada.)

 

Unicef Canada
This website is designed by Unicef in Canada to teach children and youth rights issues for all levels of school-age children (K-12). 

 

Unicef Rights Leaflet

A Unicef pamphlet about rights AND responsibilities in kid-friendly language, complete with drawings. 

 

Growing Up Boulder: Children and Youth Bill of Rights Curriculum Fall 2011

The curriculum we are currently using.

 

Boulder Journey School Teacher Intern Assignment

This is an assignment for early childhood educators enrolled in a class on children's rights taught by the BJS.  The activity asks teachers to develop and test methods to learn about rights from very young children (0-5 years old).
