Lecture

The revolution sparked due to public discontent with the re-election of Alexander Lukashenko, who has ruled the country since 1994. The people of Belarus took to the streets to demand fair and transparent elections, which they believe Lukashenko tried to manipulate. The government responded with a violent crackdown, leading to international condemnation.

Physical break

Or the teacher can use this poem to guide the students:

Jumping jacks, up and down Squats low and then stand tall Lunges forward, one leg at a time High knees, run in place but stay in line

Butt kicks, kick your heels to your glutes Mountain climbers, climb that imaginary mountain, don't give up the pursuits Plank, hold up your body in a perfect line Push-ups, lower down and up, try not to whine

Sit-ups, for a stronger core, repeat till fatigue Burpees, jump, squat, plank, and jump up with speed

Let's move our bodies and have some fun Learning about history, doesn't have to be a sedentary one.
