Gender Differences: A Journey of Self-Discovery
At Ela Green School, we believe that every child is unique and should be celebrated for who they are. As part of our commitment to diversity and inclusion, we recently had a lesson on gender differences.
The children were eager to learn more about themselves and their peers, and they were excited to share their own observations and experiences. We started by asking them to describe their own physical characteristics. They pointed out their hair color, eye color, height, and other features. Then, we asked them to describe each other’s appearances. They noticed each other’s clothes, shoes, and accessories.
Next, we talked about the differences between boys and girls. The children pointed out that boys and girls often have different hairstyles, clothing, and interests. They also noticed that boys and girls’ bodies are different.
Finally, we gave the children the opportunity to create representations of a man and a woman using cut-outs. They carefully pasted the parts together to create their own unique portrayals. Some children even added details like bindis and other cultural symbols.
This lesson was a valuable opportunity for the children to learn about gender differences in a fun and engaging way. It also helped them to appreciate their own uniqueness and the diversity of their peers.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the lesson:
- Gender is a social construct, meaning that it is defined by society and culture.
- There is a wide range of variation within each gender.
- It is important to respect everyone’s identity, regardless of their gender.
We are grateful for the opportunity to provide our students with a learning environment where they can feel safe and supported to explore their own identities.
