After the dialogue, take the students to the mirror, asking them to observe themselves: face shape, hair type, skin color, among others. later they
should make a self-portrait with all the features they find important. After that, each student should introduce themselves to the group by showing their self-portrait. The teacher should reflect on the differences and show that this is a good thing.

From this, the teacher will ask a person who likes a fruit if he would be friends with another person who hates his fruit.

Religious prejudice is something, unfortunately, very common in Brazil. Whether due to lack of knowledge or intolerance, people generally present erroneous stereotypes of some religions and thus segregate their members. Therefore, activities and dynamics involving this theme are extremely important, in order to to combat advance opinions.
The purpose of this activity is not to explain all religions, but to explain what faith is. With this explanation, the educator will point out that there are no right or wrong religions, and that the factor primordial involving this issue is faith, and that this must be respected regardless of anything. In addition, one should be aware of the importance of researching before judging.
