Model
Ask children: What is a family? (a group of people you are related to). Ask children: What are some names for family members? (mother, father, cousin, etc.) Say: Families are the people that we are related to. Sometimes people can be related by blood, such as a brother or cousin or sometimes they can be related through marriage, such as a mother-in-law. What are some things that family members do with each other? (have parties, play games, teak care of each other, etc.)
Apply
Play the games that follow. Have them discuss with their partner the different topics that appear during the Talk About It feature. After the first game, ask children about their families. After the second game, encourage them to talk about which members their families are made of and if there are any special things they do together.
Close
Ask students: Choose a partner and tell them about your family. What are the differences between your families? What is the same about them? What would it be like to switch families with your partner? Say: Families are made up of many different people, or members. Families share with each other and also spend a lot of time together. Are pets considered family members? Why?
