This complete and meaningful Literature Based Social-Emotional Lesson explores self-affirmation and acceptance. Starting with an engaging Read Aloud (either by teacher or provided video in the slide show), students will discover all the ways in which they are meant to be here, and have a purpose. Through a fun and thought provoking game, students will explore the use of simile (which is present in the Read Aloud), and will explore more ways that they are here to live, thrive, and be themselves.
