Makedo Change in your classroom
Makedo Change is a series of lesson plans focusing on global citizenship and changemaking. Designed for teachers of all subjects to engage students in grades two through eight, the lessons meet a wide range of curriculum standards from around the world.
We’ve created two special activities for Earth Month this year, but educators can access the entire program free here.
If you enjoyed our Earth Month classroom activity, then check out the entire Makedo Change program.
What teachers are saying about Makedo Change
"I love the cross-curricular learning opportunities it provides and how easy it was to implement. It opened up important conversations about global citizenship and how we can help make our world a better place. I've recommended it to my colleagues as a must-have in their classroom communities."
Amanda Long - Pringle Creek Primary School, Whitby Ontario Canada
"The Makedo cardboard construction kit is a phenomenal resource which provides pupils with the tools to allow their creativity and problem solving to flourish. Makedo Change allows teachers to teach children in an engaging way and then encourages them to fundraise to help to make a difference. Thank you Makedo!"
Donna Hanley - Primary STEM Development Officer, Midlothian Council & RAiSE, Scotland
"The Makedo Change Program helps to build thinking classrooms in which students experience deeper learning and the Global Competencies. It provides students with the tools to develop their own ideas and put them into action. Our students have the potential to change the world - and they are one step closer with the Makedo Change Program."
Ashton Fischer - St. Luke Catholic School, Waterloo Ontario Canada
"Students were able to see the value in being passionate about things that interest them and how they can use that passion to do good in the world.
Makedo change discusses many important global issues and provides insight into how we become global thinkers. My grade 8 students loved the in-depth conversations and the learning that came with each lesson."
Bobbie Francis - Grade 8 Teacher / Science, Pringle Creek Public School, Whitby Canada
"The Makedo Change curriculum was incredibly engaging for our fourth-grade students. The content is a great blend of maker and design curricula that can be adapted to fit almost any content standards."
Greg McDonough - Innovation Space Director, Lake Forest Country Day School, Illinois USA
