Elementary Diversity Unit Plan By: Jennifer Derevjanik

 Level 2: The Additive Approach  Aim: What role did the segregation play in the US Army during WWII?  Students will learn from a photograph of soldiers eating in separate rooms from other races, an article and class discussion on the segregation in the army of African American soldiers and white soldiers.  Students will be able to define segregation, discuss implications caused by segregation and investigate evidence through past events through analysis of a photograph.

 Level 1: The Contributions Approach  Aim: What strides did the Tuskegee Airmen make for desegregation in the US Army?  Students will have class discussion, read an article and watch a video to learn about the contributions Tuskegee Airmen made, not only in the war but with helping desegregating the US army.  Students will be able to organize history and facts on the airmen, analyze a video and article and construct an essay reflecting on desegregation.

 Level 3: The Transformation Approach  Aim: How did the Tuskegee Airmen feel about fighting for their country while facing discrimination?  Students will learn about the Tuskegee Airmen’s contributions in the US army by class discussions and a video interview with Tuskegee Airmen John Mulzac.  Students will be able to express reactions to the airmen’s experience, Justify the airmen’s decisions, and discuss the experience of the airmen through their point of view.

 Level 4: The Social Action Approach  Aim: What can be done to lessen the racial divides that are still present in many cities, communities and schools?  Students will discuss other heroes that help desegregate America. They will discuss how segregation still exist in our society and they will formulate a plan on how to desegregate their community.

 Students will be able to…  Describe the role segregation played on army men during the Second World War.  Analyze how the racial adversity faced by the Tuskegee Airmen helped to further propel desegregation in the United States.  Recognize the unique perspective the Tuskegee Airmen had; facing discrimination from the country they were risking their lives for  Compare and contrast racial and social divides now to back in the 1940’s, both advancements and impediments.  Construct a plan of action that tackles social divides which are still present in many communities today.

 Segregation still exist today!  We must teach our students that they can help make a difference in creating a society that has no privileges and everyone is born equal no matter their race, age, disability, sexual orientation or gender.  Students need to learn that no matter who tells them they will not be able to do something, if they work hard and believe, they can make a difference in helping change our society!!
