Overview
This lesson is a foundation level exercise to ensure that students are aware of themselves versus others.
Use the customised photograph function to create a lesson for each individual that has their own images in it to support sorting pictures of ‘me’ vs ‘not me’.
Generalisation ideas
- Photo albums: create an album of familiar people and ask your student to find themselves. You could also use group images with your student and ask them to find themselves.
- Language development tasks: use visuals to support understanding of personal pronouns such as I/me/mine vs you/them/your
- Find your name tasks: at the beginning of each session lay out a selection of name tags with photos of students and have your student find their own and place it on a special space.
