Teaching students about fair trade is vital as they learn how to become advocates for the poor and to share the promise of eternal hope.

Resources

The resources below are designed to teach students in grades 7–12 about WorldCrafts’ vision and mission.

• Student leaders can utilize our 30-minute lesson plan to teach age-appropriate information about WorldCrafts to students.
• Show WorldCrafts videos to students to show the artisans at work hand-making the products.
• Students will enjoy finding the locations of our artisans on a world map.
• Introduce different cultures by making some of our WorldCrafts recipes.
• Students enjoy seeing the faces of the artisans and learning their stories. Use the WorldCrafts 8.5 -by-11 poster, WorldCrafts 11-by-17 poster, and artisan story posters to showcase the many faces and stories of WorldCrafts. You can also use the country display cards to show where each product you have on display is from.
• Distribute our promotional flyer to give people a way to connect with WorldCrafts in the future.

WorldCrafts products for your lesson

Displaying WorldCrafts products while you teach helps participants understand the craftsmanship of the artisans who hand make each product.

Order products for your display:

• Order current products to display. We strongly advise you to only display current products that are available online. You can return the products within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. Return items to 100 Missy Ridge, Hwy 280 East, Birmingham, AL 35242. You are responsible for return shipping. Please note that items purchased on clearance (50% discount) are not returnable.

Tips

• Wear current WorldCrafts jewelry and accessories when teaching so you can tell the stories of the artisans who made the pieces you are wearing.
• Share photos of your teaching space and students (only with parents’ approval) on social media with #WorldCrafts and tag us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
