This week in our Living and Learning topic, KS1 have been learning about different types of families.
Our statement this week has been ‘I understand there are different types of families.’
We started off by discussing words that we associate with families. A few that the children came up with were: care, love and sharing.
We also discussed who might be in our families and that not every family looks the same.
We read ‘The Great Big Big Book of Families’ by Mary Hoffman and Ros Asquith – which celebrates the diversity of families and illustrates that families come in all shapes and sizes.
All our families are very different but the important thing is that people in families care about each other.
