1.3: 'Me' Collage
This activity draws attention to the value placed on each student.
Tasks
- Ask students to sit in a circle with teacher. As a model, complete the following statement: "My name is X and I like cats." Ask students to each have a turn completing the statement.
- Ask students to create a personal collage by using pictures cut from magazines or drawing things that they like to represent themselves e.g. football, peaches, pink, dogs.
- Ask students to write or trace names. Ask students to think of positive descriptive statements about themselves and write them down.
- Collect collages and, hiding the names, use the statements as clues for a whole class guessing game. "Guess who likes football, peaches and pink?" etc.
- This activity draws attention to the value placed on each student.
- At all times encourage positive statements. Teacher may have to question further or make suggestions.
- The ‘Me' collages may be stapled together to make a big book for shared reading activities.
