We break into groups.  Each group choose to focus on the experience of one particular child (Bilal, Bedouin; Tzvika, Jewish; or Douha, Palestinian).

Then, as a group, discuss the following:

  1. What worries do you think these children have as a result of the instability and conflict in the area where they live?
  2. What kinds of things have these young people probably seen going on around them?
  3. What do you have in common with these young people? (Consider thoughts, goals, fears, joys, etc.)
  4. What are some ways in which these young people’s sleeping arrangements differ from yours? (If you like, obtain parent permission and have students bring in pictures of their bedrooms.)
  5. What are some ways in which war and violence affect children over the course of their lives?
