E. Generalization
It is very true that our home, Earth is vast

plain of diversity. There’s dark and fair
complexion. There we have curly and straight
hairs. There we have oldies and youngs, males
and females. Different beliefs, stands and
religions and aside from those differences
there’s even more things that will prove that
Earth is a home for billions of creatures of
different prototypes.

G. Valuing
*the teacher will let the children watch a

video about how belief systems and/ or
religions change the face of the world
You’ve witnessed the total transformation

that religion has made to the home we called
-Earth. And “this is not Secret…”
That because of the stigma that “we are

different”. We tend to kill our own flesh. That
because we cannot accept that this world is not
a world of single species, we are actually
killing our brothers, our very own flesh.
Who would think…
That this lively village, would turn to this

hollow city of bombing remains.
7
That this Holy Mosque…
Would turn into horrible graveyard

building…
And who do you think the real victims?
Exactly. The children of today and

tomorrow are the one’s who will gulp the
cruelty of misunderstanding and disrespect
between the gaps made by belief systems. But
you know what? It is not too late. We can still
rebuild our society. And what do you think the
answer?
It is Respect and Accept!
Indeed! Respect to what others think right

and accept the fact that we do not own this
world so we have to match ourselves with our
co- existors. Start imagining the world without
fear and violence, and that would be possible
if today, we’ll start mastering the art of respect
tolerance and acceptance.
