This lesson is the third in a series called ŇFamily Tapestry.Ó One goal of these lessons is to help students recognize and accept differences among themselves and within the larger community. Another is to recognize how each studentŐs unique family contributes to a richer society. As students begin to understand themselves better, learning opportunities to explore biases and prejudices will likely emerge. In this lesson, students learn the concepts of ŇsameÓ and Ňdifferent,Ó read and answer questions about two types of families, and create a Ňsame and differentÓ graphic organizer that reflects similarities and differences between their family and a classmateŐs family.
