Title - Family Diversity Activity
By - Megan Nichols
Primary Subject - Social Studies
Grade Level - 1-5
Objective: To educate young people about family diversity in an ever-changing society.
Materials:
Paper
Crayons, Markers or Pencils
Activity:
1. Ask children/students to draw pictures (using crayons and paper) of their family.
2. Have children/students share with and explain to the class who their family consists of and what family means to them.
3. Talk about the different family forms (two-parent, single parent, adoptive, foster, grandparent, etc.) that exist. Share about the diverse nature of families, and what the definition of family is.
4. Encourage children/students to talk about family diversity with their family members.
Goal:
The point of this exercise is to bring awareness about family diversity to the younger population, to teach them that different family forms are normal, and to encourage them to talk about it with their own family. Hopefully, by incorporating this exercise into your lesson plan, we can make children who are not from the "traditional" households feel more comfortable and confident about theirs.
