This four-hour workshop will model and give you practice in leading four different popular education activities to demystify the budget crisis that is deeply impacting our schools and communities. All materials will be provided—geared for California but can be adapted for other states. The activities are intended for adults and high school and college students.
Teachable Moment: A one-hour structured discussion about the roots of the budget crisis affecting public education, health and social services, with handout.
Ten Chairs of Inequality: A variation of the well-known “Ten Chairs” workshop that models extreme wealth inequality in the US. This version brings in the public education connection and helps us vision what a liberated public education system would look like.
Why is California so DisFunktional? A Project-South-style history timeline workshop showing how California government has been structured to serve a small elite. The content is focused on California, but the workshop can be adapted to other states.
Vampire Slayers Street Theater: Giant puppets and platoons of vampires in long capes do political education at “save public education” demonstrations in California. We’ll share postcards, posters, flyers, slides, scripts—just add your group and get rolling!
