PSHE– Special me

Objective: Can I identify what is special about me and value the ways in which I am unique?

Can I like and respect the unique features of my physical appearance?

Key vocabulary

• Special

• Unique

• Different

• Characteristics

• Physical features

Connect us

Invite a friend or family member to join you in writing a few statements about yourselves. Do this on strips

of paper - fold them up and put them all in a pile together.

Here is your sentence starter: I am special because…

Here are some examples that you could use:

• I am a good friend

• I love playing football

• I have green eyes

• I enjoy cooking

Once you have several in a pile, mix them up and take it in turns to open them. Can you guess who wrote

each statement?

Next, hang them all together along a piece of string or stick them all together on a sheet of paper.

How do you feel looking at all of these qualities together?

Open my mind

Listen to the story Ruby by Maggie Glen:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-2sbrAqHZQ

What do you think the story is about?

It can be argued that the story is about being different –

feeling like you don’t belong but that whatever you look like,

you are special and unique.

Draw Ruby – try to include the qualities that make

Ruby special.

Talking points:

• Does it matter what the bear looks like?

• How might it feel if you don’t belong?

• Can the bear still be loved and cared for no matter what it looks like?

• How does the bear feel special?

Tell me / show me

See if you can find some pictures of yourself with friends or family.

Can you see some physical qualities that make people special?

What positive things can you say about people in the photos?

E.g. She has smiley eyes and seems caring. He has a nice smile and looks happy. They have blue eyes

that look clear and honest.

Self reflections

Using a mirror, have a look at your reflection. Try to find some details that are unique to you. Use the mirror

to draw a self portrait.

What colour and pattern do your eyes have?

What shape is your nose?

Do you have some freckles?

Do you have dimples when you smile?

Try to capture these tiny differences in your drawing and label what you like about them.

All of these things are unique to you. We are similar in some ways and different in others - just like Ruby the bear, there is only one of you and the little differences are what make you special.

Reflective thoughts

What are the special qualities and characteristics that you have?

List 3 things that you like about your physical appearance (how you look).

List 3 things that you like about your personality (who you are as a person, e.g. kind, funny, caring,

adventurous, brave, tenacious).
