Provide a metaview, lifting students into a wider view of the concept. Use another medium (not reading or writing) to connect students' personal knowing to the concept (i.e. visual arts, music, movement, metaphor, etc.) Involve learners in reflective production that blends the emotional and the cognitive.

Visual of Possible Outcomes

Objective: Students will create a cartoon showing sources of conflict and different outcomes.

Activity: Have students choose a partner. Tell them to share the feelings and thoughts they included in their essay or journal entry. Then have them create two visuals showing different ways in which the issue of annexation might be resolved.

When students are done display their work around the room and allow students time to walk around and look at them.

Assessment:Thoughtful. Students should now be contemplating different ways in which conflicts can be resolved and thinking about how things like the actions of government and feelings of pride in their school and community could lead to conflict
