Igniting the Fire in Children with Rights Education:
We Stand Together by Luke (gr 5)
Rise, Ignite, Go, Hope, Teamwork, Say = Learn
Rise up;
Ignite our fire;
Go change the world;
Help those we can ;
Teamwork together to change the world;
Say what we need to change the world.
This was created by Luke (Maria Montessori Academy, Victoria, Canada) 5 weeks after he was introduced to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. He clearly was empowered by his knowledge of rights, and is making a clear statement that he wants to change the world.

Water
Children need water
They walk many miles for it!
Let's build a good well.
Food
We need healthy food
Children around the world starve!
Let's change the system.
Play
Children need to play
Stop child labour! It is bad
Factories exploit.
