Who Is In My Family?
🎯 Today's mission briefing
We are learning to name the people in our family and talk about how they belong together.
You'll know you've got it when:
- I can name the people in my family and say how they belong to me (like 'Nana is Mum's mum')
- I can tell you one thing that makes my family special
- I can say that families come in all shapes and sizes — and all of them are families
The people puzzle
Connects to what your guest already knows and makes them curious. Activating prior knowledge is one of the strongest predictors of new learning.
Helper, read aloud: Here's a puzzle for you. There's a group of people in this world who love you the most out of everyone. Some of them live in your house. Some might live far away. Some are big, some are small, and one of them is reading to you right now! Who am I talking about? ... That's right — your FAMILY. Today, YOU get to be the expert, because nobody in the whole world knows your family the way you do.
