Celebrating Identity

​

This activity was inspired by local teachers @earlyyearsinquirer and @darlamyersclass . We all know how important it is to talk about identity in the classroom, and this activity was a perfect way to start those conversations. 
After reading the book "Brown- the Many Shades of Love" by Nancy Johnson James, students used clay to match their shade of skin to create a portrait. 
​

Materials You will need:
- Clay of all different colours 
- Card stock 
-The book Brown (you can purchase this through our website- don't forget to checkout the teacher collective if you work in education!)
