The lesson “Identity in Culture and Community” teaches children about their own culture and why it is important to appreciate the culture and community in which they live. The children will be able to identify characteristics of their culture and state at least three reasons why they are glad to be a part of that culture. With teacher facilitation, each child will be able to experience several unique elements and traditions of his or her own culture. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 9-11 years, and is the fourth lesson in the 1st year “Self-Awareness” unit.
