Addressing Hunger Around the Globe

Every year there is a World Food Day, an effort to end hunger in the world.

This lesson plan on Addressing Hunger Around the Globe provides students with important information about hunger as well as ways to try and stop hunger.

I think the hunger map is fascinating and would be great for students to analyze.

There is also a link to an article about hunger in Kenya.  I haven't read it yet but it looks good.

This would be a good study of hunger in Africa during an Africa Unit.

I especially like this idea because the lesson is authentic.  Students aren't just learning facts about Africa but are learning how the can participate in these big life questions.  I want students to feel like they can make a difference.
