- I feel different ways at different times for different reasons.

- My family is important and unique.
- My classroom is a community. All of the people in my class are important and unique.

Learning Centers:
Blocks-The student’s name cards will be available in block center. Students are invited to write their names using blocks, discussing the lines in each letter of their name (straight, curved, etc.).
Pretend Play- Children are invited to pretend to be a family. They are encouraged them to cook for each other, eat a meal together, or take care of daily household living.
