Display an “upside down” map somewhere in your school.
When you register for the program, you will be sent a free “Rethink the World” t-shirt. (You can also order additional t-shirts at $20/each plus shipping and handling.)
The graphic on the t-shirt features an “upside down” map that challenges people to “rethink the world.”
This 15-minute lesson plan or team ice-breaker is an engaging, fun way to get students thinking critically about the world map as we've always known it.
The activity also introduces the idea of the "preferential option for the poor" and the Catholic Social Teachings.
