Similarities & Differences
Personal & Social Development · Empathy & Social Awareness · conceptual
Notice and appreciate ways that people are similar to and different from each other — including appearance, family structures, languages spoken, foods eaten, and celebrations observed — and understand that differences make communities interesting
What mastery looks like
- Name several ways people in their class or community are different from each other
- Describe at least one thing they have learned from someone who is different from them
- Express a positive attitude about differences rather than judging them
Check your understanding
Can Similarities & Differences talk positively about how families in their class are different — some have two mums, some speak another language at home, some celebrate different holidays — and see this as interesting rather than strange?
