Lesson Idea | What is a Family?

This lesson provides a framework for students to discuss their families and understand the different structures that exist within their community. Through discussions and artistic activities, students will reflect on what makes their families unique and how these differences contribute to a richer classroom environment. They will create family portraits that showcase their individuality and share them in a gallery display. By exploring literature about various family types, students will build a supportive classroom community that values and respects diverse family backgrounds, reinforcing the idea that every family contributes to the richness of their world.
