Hey Ima, I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share with you how I handle educating my students about
vandalism in the classroom. First of all, I start by explaining what vandalism is and why it's harmful. I use
examples like graffiti, broken windows, and damaged park benches. I also show them pictures of the damage
and talk about the cost of repairing it. Next, I ask my students to brainstorm ideas for preventing vandalism.
Some of their suggestions have included organizing neighbourhood watch groups, installing security cameras
and educating people about the consequences of vandalism. Lastly, I organize school-wide initiatives, such as
mural painting or community clean-up days, to instil a sense of pride and ownership in our school environment.
By actively participating in these activities, students gain a deeper appreciation for their surroundings and are
less likely to engage in destructive behaviour. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic and any ideas you
might have. Let's catch up soon! Take care, Hamizah
