To spark our new Unit ‘We Belong!’, our Early Years class met poor Pip, a little leopard who was feeling shy, unsure, and like he didn’t quite belong.
The students were challenged to think about an important question: What could we do to help Pip feel welcome and show him that he belongs in our class?
They came up with so many thoughtful ideas! Together, they created a poster filled with suggestions for helping Pip feel safe, included, and cared for. But they didn’t stop there — throughout the day, the children made sure to include Pip in their play, learning, and classroom activities.
Through this simple provocation, the children began exploring what it really means to belong to a community and how our actions can help others feel that they are an important part of it.
A beautiful start to our inquiry into belonging, community, and caring for one another. 🏡❤️
