CHILD 5: In school, we’ve experienced lots of different cultures and see how people live in the different parts of the world.

If you’re interested in more Twinkl poems, take a look at our wonderful Poetry Collection. You’ll never meet a person who is exactly the same as you in every way. People have different appearances and identities but we also have so many similarities, which make us all equal! And if you ask me, that’s definitely something to celebrate! This celebrating differences PowerPoint starts off by getting learners to think about the things that make us different. This could be hair colour, height, the colour of our skin, or the type of family that we have. Challenge your class to think of some more things that make us unique - no two people are the same (unless they're twins!) The beautiful message of 'Wonder' is reimagined as a picture book for younger readers. In this story, Auggie and his dog Daisy go on their own adventure, and readers can learn what it’s like to live in Auggie’s world - he feels just like any other kid, but not everyone sees him that way. This book touches on the themes of belonging, empathy, difference and being seen for who you truly are.

As each slide appears, read the list to the children and ask them what the list has in common – why have these items been grouped together?

In this resource, you’ll find a beautifully illustrated PowerPoint with each slide depicting different areas where people can be different.

The meconopsis is a blue poppy-like flower, one of the few blue flowers around. It has a long stem, with several flowers on each stem. Children can respect the diversity of others when they’re brought up around people with different cultures to their own, or by celebrating different cultures during events in the year. You can also encourage your children to learn about people who are different to them. Discussion cards are a great way of talking about a topic such as diversity. Each card contains a story with different characters. Children can read the story then answer the questions underneath. These questions encourage children to reflect on what similarities and differences the characters have and what positive qualities each person has.

This brilliant we are all different PowerPoint is a great resource for helping your learners understand the ways in which we are all different.

There are also fun role-play activities, beautiful, thought-provoking videos exemplifying each theme, and various discussion activities regarding how to show the skills in different areas of their own lives. No further resources are required, everything that you need to present the assemblies is included.
