Lesson 10 — All About Me
Learners gather everything they have learned about themselves into a small "Me" book and celebrate who they are — unique, sharing, and belonging.
Objectives
- D01.S2.K.01 Share one thing that makes them unique and one thing they share with others.
- D01.S2.K.02 Name the groups to which they belong (family, class, community).
Essential question
Who am I, all together?
Materials
Standard materials
- All artwork from Lessons 2–9 · per learner The body outline, "Me" sheet, hand tracing, and other saved work
- A folder or folded paper to make a "Me" book · 1 per learner
- Crayons, glue, or string · as available To bind the "Me" book
Low-tech / no-cost
- The learner's own saved work and voice Gather every saved piece and tell your story aloud; no new supplies needed
- A cloth or leaf wrapping Bind saved drawings with a strip of cloth or a tied leaf stem
Enriched / lab & device
- A tablet or camera · 1 per group Photograph each page and record the learner telling one thing about themselves
Works in different contexts
- large-group Hold a sharing circle where each learner shows one page of their "Me" book and the group claps or cheers
- self-directed A learner assembles the book alone, then reads it through and tells a grown-up the three biggest things they learned about themselves
- outdoor-only Sit in a circle outside and pass the "Me" books around, each learner showing one page under the open sky
Lesson 10 — All About Me
Summary
The unit closes with a celebration. Learners gather their saved work — feelings, body maps, “Me” sheets, and people drawings — into a small “Me” book and share who they have discovered themselves to be.
Objectives
- Share one thing that makes them unique and one thing they share with others. (D01.S2.K.01)
- Name the groups to which they belong (family, class, community). (D01.S2.K.02)
Connection
You have spent many days learning about you — your feelings, your body, the things that make you unique, and the people and groups you belong to. Now it is time to put it all together and see the whole picture: who am I, all together?
Materials
- All saved artwork from Lessons 2–9
- A folder or folded paper to make a “Me” book
- Crayons, glue, or string to bind the book
Preparation
- Gather each learner’s saved work from the unit.
- Fold or prepare a simple book cover for each learner.
- Arrange a sharing circle for the celebration.
Facilitator note
This lesson is written to the learner (“you”) so it works in a classroom and for a self-directed learner. As facilitator, this is a celebration, not a test. Hold space for each learner to share one page — some will share boldly, others quietly; both are fine. The “Me” book becomes the portfolio artifact for the whole unit.
Procedure
- Gather (5 min). Spread out everything you have made in this unit. Look at it all — this is you, on paper.
- Build my “Me” book (20 min). Put your pages in order: your feelings, your body map, what makes you me, the things we share, your people, your community. Add a cover with your name. Bind it with glue or string.
- Three big things (10 min). Think of three things you learned about yourself: one feeling you know, one thing that makes you unique, and one group you belong to. Whisper them to yourself, then tell a partner.
- Celebrate (20 min). In a circle, each learner shows one page and says one thing: “I am ___.” The group answers: “You are you, and that is good.”
- Close (5 min). Hold your book to your heart. Remember: you know yourself better now than before.
Differentiation
- Support: Offer a sentence starter — “One thing I know about me is ___.” — and allow showing a page without words.
- Extension: Invite learners to write or draw on the last page “something I am still learning about me.”
Assessment
- Portfolio: The completed “Me” book, reviewed with the learner.
- Self: The learner names one feeling, one unique thing, and one group they belong to.

Home connection
Take your “Me” book home and share it with your people. Read it together and let them add one thing they know about you.
