This site was a research project by Daryn Cambridge while he was in the International Training and Education Program at American University. It's a great Peace Education Resource

The "Reading Guides" section has many suggestions for various peace education theorists and resources as well as some links to these sources and even some guides to teaching on these resources.

Daryn was a teacher trainer for years and all of his "Activities" are student centered, multi-sensory and action-based.

These Activities are appropriate or can be adapted to all ages.

Daily 60 second podcast!

Also, you can search previous podcasts to find ones that have to do with your specific lesson. Listening to the Podcasts could be a "Do now" activity or an activity at a station students rotate through.

Daily 1 question civics quiz! These questions are not always about post Constitutional US. Some of the questions that I have seen had to do with Enlightenment thinking, the middle ages, ancient Greece, etc.
