Art, music and drama have had a pivotal role in the livelihood of human beings. This is clear by the wealth of literature, architecture, fine art, theater and music that define human past, present and future. The inherent creative ability and a yearning to express ourselves is what gives value to art, music and drama as companion components in human evolution. 

This teacher's guide covers art, music, dance, drama, experiential learning, community engagement, and how to integrate these aspects into curriculum. Additionally, this document provides lesson plans for primary school students in these subject areas. 

Ce guide invite les enseignants à réfléchir aux inégalités de genre dans les manuels scolaires. Elle présente des bases légales et normatives sur lesquelles s’appuient cette question dans le cadre Français, des chronologies, infographies sur l’égalité de genre et l’élaboration des programmes. On y retrouve différents outils à destination des enseignants pour les accompagner au moment d’aborder ces sujets en classe dans différentes matières, ou plus largement dans la vie scolaire.  

The toolkit offers an introduction to gender-responsive pedagogy in early childhood education and serves as a practical guide that can be adapted to any context and the related needs. It provides teachers at early education practical tips to ensure they are able to offer children a learning environment that is free of prejudice and stereotypes. It is a source of ideas that individual teachers and school leaders can put to immediate use in their classrooms and schools. The toolkit was pre-trialled in three countries: Rwanda, South Africa and Zambia, and it can be contextualised for implementation in different African countries.
