| Project Description | ||||||||
|
This interdisciplinary study is designed to assist students in developing an awareness of violent and non-violent responses to adversities. Violence is prevalent in the everyday lives of our Montefiore students. It is critical for the survival of our students, as productive members of society, that they see the benefits of non-violent behavior. Students will focus on developing an understanding of fire and fire safety. Through books, the Internet and interviews, students draw conclusions about the benefits of nonviolent t responses to difficult situations.
