At the beginning of the school year, our students will be getting to know each other, and through this process, we also take the time to share ourselves with our friends in our new classroom. As we take the time to understand ourselves and who we are, we write poems and stories about ourselves to share with others. We explore our reflections and create self-portraits.
As a part of the self-portrait process, we examine our faces and study who we are, our image on the outside, and what is unseen on the inside.
We will use these reflective materials to help us explore our reflections and guide our conversations around who we are. We will also use these materials to guide our conversations around light and shadow, one of our first-grade standards.
In these conversations and discussions we are having, it is important that we center our discussions around the many facets of who we are and our identities, including books that feature characters who look like the students in our class.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
