The Mosaic Classroom Project

Building Peaceful Classroom Communities

The Mosaic Classroom Project assists teachers in fostering a peaceful, inclusive classroom culture that embraces the unique perspective of each student. Through film, storytelling, “gametivities”, music, and discussions, the program introduces students to The Mosaic Project’s core themes of Diversity, Empathy, Assertiveness, Conflict Resolution, and Be a Peacemaker.

The Mosaic Classroom Project brings the magic and teachings of our Outdoor Project to 4th and 5th grade classrooms anywhere in the world. With 16 sequential lessons between 20-60 minutes in length, the program allows teachers to adapt pacing to fit their classroom needs, ensuring deeper engagement and better concept retention throughout the school year. The Classroom Project offers plug-and-play materials including lesson slide decks complete with instructional and documentary videos, Mosaic’s original music, accompanying student and teacher guides, and supplemental resources.
