Next week we are having Exceptional Children’s Week at my school. I’ll be going into my first grade classes for lessons, so it’s a natural time to reinforce the “Everyone is Unique” concept (not only a component of Mindset Matters), but a great lesson for every day and age… most especially this day and age. Understanding the concept that we all look and learn differently is a key part of having a growth mindset. It is also a part of maintaining a school culture of acceptance, tolerance and compassion.

So… onto the lesson I will be doing. I haven’t used the book Elmer in years, but it is a classic that I am happy to come back to after so long of it sitting on my shelf.

Here is the PPTto go along with it.
So, after we read the story we discuss and then we do a worksheet. I instruct the kids that they have 2 choices of worksheets. One is a coloring page and one is an “all about me” page + coloring page. After the students start working for a bit I call “Freeze, pencils and crayons down! Raise your hand if you are doing the coloring side. Raise your hand if you are doing the ‘All about me side’.
