The haitian team has been working a lot with Memorize.  You can find
some lesson plans here: http://olpchaiti.org/w/start?do=index (french)

A very general but powerful activity we also experimented: let the 
kids create a newspaper from scratch.  The topic was: Haitian public
transportation.  The children went in the streets with the XO, made
interviewed of people, took pictures of cars, buses, etc, wrote about
ideas they had etc.  Activities involved: Write and Record.  I was not
present when they did this, but I can redirect you to someone who can
give more details, just let me know.
