- How do we incorporate human rights education into the curriculum?
Reading
- EDUC 275 CLASS 5 HANDOUT
- For the following website, selected pages have been put in the class handout above.

Learning Activities
Preparing lesson plan and learning resources
- Take a look at the curriculum topics in your subject areas. Identify four examples of topics (from any of the levels – Forms 1 to 4) in which you can incorporate human rights education.
- Choose one topic from the curriculum and prepare a lesson plan ( for any level – Form 1 to 4) that incorporates human rights education. The lesson should have a clear introductory hook, lesson development, conclusion, teacher and student activities plus assessment.
- Create a handout with of two activities you will use to teach this lesson
Important: This will be handed in at our face to face meeting at BEHR during Lesson 10.

LESSON NOTE FOR THAT DAY
THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE OF A ROOT AND ROOT HAIRS
The primary functions of roots are;
1. Anchorage (holding the plant firmly in the soil )
2. Absorption (uptake of mineral salt and water )
3. Storage and breathing
PARTS OF THE STRUCTURE OF A ROOT
1. Root hair
2. Cortex
3. Endodermis
4. Pericycle
5. Epidermis
6. Xylem
7. Phloem
FUNCTIONS OF PARTS OF STRUCTURES OF A ROOT
1. Root hairs
– They make very close contact with the soil, bending round particles and penetrating in to the crevices.
– They provide large surface area for water and mineral salts absorption
2. The Epidermis
– They protect the inner tissues from infections and mechanical injury
3. Cortex
– It allows water molecules to pass through this tissue to reach the vascular bundles
– Act as a storage of tissues
4. Endodermis
– They control the amount of water and mineral salts entering in to the vascular bundle
5. Pericycle
– Gives rise to lateral roots
6. Xylem
– It conducts water and mineral salts from the roots up to the plants
7. Phloem
– Translocate manufactured food substances such as sugar.
