Tree of Me Self-Esteem Whole Class Activity Kit

Overview

• This activity kit is an essential tool for helping children develop a sense of self and belonging. It includes a classroom display board and individual flip books that promote both group and personal reflection on identity, values, and community connections.

• The kit's lesson plans focus on different aspects of identity—from roots and heritage to hopes and aspirations—suiting a broad age range. These lessons comply with the UK curriculum and support the development of personal insights and group cohesion.

• This practical kit is constructed to be used multiple times in busy classroom settings. A comprehensive teacher's guide offers valuable insights and instructions for effective activity implementation.

• Each part of the tree has two lesson plans, split into 'A' and 'B'. Lesson 'A' introduces the idea of what each part of the tree represents and encourages children to think about how it applies to the whole class (Tree of Us). In lesson 'B', children consider the same ideas, but as individuals (Tree of Me).
