    This document summarizes a classroom activity to simulate the effects of inclusion and exclusion through labeling. Students are each given a sticker with a random label to wear on their forehead without seeing what it says. They then mill around the classroom as if in a lunchroom or party. This allows them to experience how the unknown labels on themselves and others can influence interactions and a sense of belonging to different groups. The purpose is to demonstrate how labels we put on people can limit their participation and negatively impact their self-worth and aspirations.

    Objective:

    To experience the effects of inclusion and exclusion in a simulated activity.

    Instructions:

     Begin the lesson by asking students if they think we sometimes label people
    because they belong to different groups. Tell them that the labels we put on
    people often limit their participation in groups.
     Tell students that you are going to give them each a sticker. Tell them that you
    will put it on their foreheads so that they cannot see what it says. Distribute the
    labels randomly. Ask everyone to remain quiet and not reveal to each other
    what their labels say.
     When everyone has a label, ask students to get up and mill around as if they
    were in the lunch room at school or at a party. Remind them that they should
    not reveal what is on anyone else’s label. Let students mingle for 4 to 5
    minutes, then ask them to return to their seats without looking at their labels.

    Why do we sometimes label people of different groups?

    Sometimes we just want to belong so much to a certain group that we forgot


    about a lot of things and we just want to satisfy the people belonging to this
    group. That’s why so many times we try to act like them and we thing we are
    better than some people and because of them we label them and sometimes
    we laugh at them.

    Labeling people had a lot of wrong consequences, some of them are that we
    limit the participation of some people that want to be part of a group, and this is
    bad because people usually feel very bad and their hopes and dreams can
    vanish just like that.

    Throughout our lives, people attach labels to us, and those labels reflect and
    affect how others think about our identities as well as how we think about
    ourselves. Labels are not always negative; they can reflect positive
    characteristics, set useful expectations, and provide meaningful goals in our
    lives.
