Secondary Education
All levels
Young people today face major challenges. They are growing up with a pandemic, a climate crisis, and war. Housing prices are rising and inequality in education is no longer being reduced, but is increasing instead. How do you interact with each other in a society that seems to be under more pressure, where social media determines what people think, and where progressively fewer people trust each other and the government? What does the latest generation think?

(Dutch programme) Nieuw: lesprogramma Manahahtáanung of Nieuw Amsterdam?
Het Inheemse verhaal achter New York
400 jaar geleden, in 1624, kwamen voor het eerst Nederlanders aan op het schiereiland Manahahtáanung, waar ze de kolonie Nieuw-Amsterdam stichtten. Deze kolonie groeide uit tot de wereldstad New York. De Nederlandse invasie en decennialange kolonisatie in dit gebied hadden grote gevolgen voor de Inheemse bevolking die daar in de 17e eeuw leefde, de Lenape. Hoe was het voor hen dat er opeens mensen van over zee hun land kwamen claimen? Wat kwamen de Nederlanders precies doen daar? En ging dat allemaal wel eerlijk?
In het lesprogramma bij de tentoonstelling Manahahtáanung of Nieuw Amsterdam? Het Inheemse verhaal achter New York worden leerlingen in de bovenbouw PO en onderbouw VO meegenomen in deze vragen en meer doormiddel van een stripboek waarin het verhaal van de Lenape, de oorspronkelijke bewoners van Manahahtáanung, wordt verteld. Na een voorbereidende les op school worden de leerlingen met dit stripboek in de hand door een museumdocent meegenomen door de tentoonstelling. Ze leren hierbij dat geschiedenis uit verschillende perspectieven kan en moet worden verteld, en dat het verleden doorspeelt in het heden. Op deze manier draagt dit lesprogramma bij aan hun burgerschapsvorming. Het lesprogramma kan ook ingezet worden voor een spannende kunst- of geschiedenisles.
