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.

Creation of symbol posters to represent modes of societal inequality.

Objective: To have students visualize the various ways in which societies separate and discriminate against certain groups of people.

Activity: Students will be organized into groups of 3-4 people. Each group will be given a poster board and a set of markers. Each group is to create visual representations of ways in which certain groups in society experience inequality. The teacher must isolate the groups so that no groups swap ideas or suggestions. Students may not use words or letters, only images. This activity requires students to think about the activity a bit more in depth. When finished, each group will present their work to the class and discuss their depictions of societal inequality. Eighth graders can be very insighful and should develop a variety of useful images. Lower ability classes may need a bit of guidance from the teacher in the form of examples.

Assessment: The creation of images and the insight shared by the students on inequality in society.
