Identities

During week two, we participated in a “getting to know you” activity. It focussed on how people are all vastly different, but we are also very much similar to one another. The central activity was to form a diversity line, where children were asked to step forwards if they agreed with a statement being read. Students were then divided into small groups where they discussed their similarities and differences and recorded these using a Venn diagram.

Then, during Week Three, the students then completed a follow up lesson, learning about differences and similarities between students in Australia and other countries in the world. The children learnt lots of new things about each other.
