An anti-racism educational package for primary schools
The cartoon and ebook are part of an anti-racist education tool kit to teach primary school children about racism, wegardless of their origin or cultural background.
A complete, ready-to-use programme that helps children recognize racism, understand stereotypes, develop empathy, and learn how to repair harm — through the power of storytelling.
What the package includes:
A 13-minute animated cartoon (available in English, French, German, Dutch and Luxembourgish)
The companion storybook (digital format)
Pupil activities and worksheets with 52 exercises, games and projects for pupils — covering stereotype recognition, empathy-building and conflict repair
A 200-page teacher's guide with detailed step-by-step instructions for every activity — no prior anti-racism training required
Why it works:
Designed for teachers who want to address racism in the classroom but don't always feel equipped to lead these conversations. Every exercise is fully explained, with discussion questions and setup instructions included.
Licensing:
Available for individual classroom use or school-wide licensing. For more information, please contact: maatianmaanster@gmail.com.
