Foreword 

This is the second volume in the Human Rights Commission's Education Series. The Series is designed to provide resource manuals for human rights educators. 

This manual is for pre-school and for lower primary teachers (Grades or Years one to four). It provides a wide range of activities for fostering feelings of self- esteem and social empathy. These are the feelings that make justice, freedom, equality and well-being meaningful. It is these values in turn that inform all the specific human rights principles. 

In 1985, more than 150 teachers and schools took part in a Commission program, run Australia-wide, to develop resources and strategies for teaching for human rights. This was the first program of its kind in the world. About thirty of the classes involved were pre-school and lower primary ones. Suggestions from the reports made by the participating teachers have been collated here, and in addition, four reports have been published in their entirety. These describe how each teacher approached her task in detail. 

The most important finding of the program was a general, not a specific one, however. Over and over again it was shown conclusively that it is possible to teach for humane values in an objective way. This is a finding of extraordinary significance, and one the Series amply documents.
