Good morning, everyone. Today we will learn about the Belarus Revolution 2020 and its Connection with War in Ukraine.
Before we start our lesson, let's review the homework. Can one of you come to the front and present your homework on the last topic we learned about?
Now, let's begin with our lesson on the Belarus Revolution 2020 and its impact on the political scenario in Belarus. 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.
Now, let's form groups of four and discuss the role of social media in sparking the revolution. How did social media help the protesters to spread their message? Take seven minutes to discuss this within your groups.
I will now distribute printable cards to each of you. Please take one card and fill it out with your thoughts on the connection between the Belarus Revolution 2020 and the War in Ukraine.
It's now time to analyze the connection between the two events. You have five minutes to fill out the printable cards with your ideas on the connection between the Belarus Revolution 2020 and the War in Ukraine.
Let's take a quick break and do a short physical activity to break up the lesson.
Before we move on to the conclusion, I will randomly collect a few cards to check your understanding of our topic today.
To summarize, we discussed the events leading up to the Belarus Revolution 2020 and its impact on the political scenario in Belarus. We then analyzed the connection between the Belarus Revolution 2020 and the War in Ukraine. For homework, I would like you to read more about the events that have taken place in Belarus and Ukraine. Thank you for your attention today.

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.
