Human Needs Activity 2:

Human Needs Activity

Working in groups, discuss and answer the following questions:

              1  - Does every human being have the rights to reach the top of the Maslow pyramid?

Yes, All the people around the world are equal, all of them should have the right to reach the top.

2- Does every human being have the capability of reaching that level?

In my opinion, I don’t think that all people around the world have the capability to reach that level because some of them don’t have the basic things such as food and homes.

3 -   What are the opportunities are needed to get to the higher level?

You have to be an independent person. You have to care about the environment around you. You have to put a goal for you and do your best to reach your goal.

    4-   What are the obstacles could stand in the way of reaching these levels?

There are many different obstacles for different people. For example, poor people don’t have the basic things. Moreover, some of the rich people don’t have the confidence and the friendship.  

5-   What could you do to help others to reach the higher levels?

         

          I can help the poor people by giving them the basic needs. I can help others by motivating them. Moreover, I can help all of them by telling them positive things.
