A Journey Through Time and Culture is a free activity pack to facilitate creative conversations on the meaning of diaspora.
Exploring how cultures move, interact and evolve, is encouraged as a way to look at how we each choose to represent and remember our own cultural identity.
Though it was designed with a classroom setting in mind for KS3 and KS4, it is open and appropriate for use in a variety of settings for all ages.
It includes two activities and a printable template to create your own cards:
Activity 1: Archive
Pick an object or concept to put in an ‘archive’ by designing one or more cards.
Activity 2: Journey
Take your item(s) on a journey! Imagine their movement on a map, making marks using pens and pencils.
