Families - Classroom Guidance

We are learning about families in 1st and 2nd grade classroom guidance lessons. There are so many wonderful books for children that beautifully illustrate the diverse and complex makeups of today's families.

In 1st grade, we read Families, Families, Families, and students made bar graphs to show the different sizes of their families.

In 2nd grade, we read All Families Are Special, and students did writing and drawing about different family traditions.
