Refugee Awareness PowerPoint BUNDLE with Reflection and Discussion Questions

Item description

This resource includes an English and Spanish version of the Refugees PowerPoint Presentation. These are perfect for your bilingual or dual-language classroom. Teach empathy, global awareness, and critical thinking with this Refugee Awareness PowerPoint Presentation. Designed for primary students, this resource introduces the concept of refugees in an age-appropriate and meaningful way. Each slide includes visuals and guiding questions that help students understand why people flee their countries, what life is like in refugee camps, and how children can make a difference.

The lesson encourages emotional growth, social-emotional learning (SEL), and civic awareness, while aligning with global citizenship and diversity education standards. A key reflective prompt, “If I Were a Refugee…” invites students to imagine life from a refugee child’s perspective, fostering empathy and perspective-taking.

Skills Practiced:

• Empathy and emotional reflection
• Social studies: human rights and global issues
• Listening and speaking (classroom discussions)
• Critical thinking and personal connections
• SEL: identity, compassion, and respect for others
