Description
This is a perfect Math & Literacy Unit for getting to know your students and their abilities. It is a short story about a little fish that looks at all the other fish and wants to be different. He wishes that he could be a different color. (Blue, green, red, yellow or purple.) Finally, he looks in a mirror and realizes that he is beautiful, too. He actually realizes that he was made to be someone very special and accepts himself just as he is.
This story is good to help students realize how special each person really is. Each student looks different, has different likes and dislikes, and has different abilities. It’s a good way to get to know about your students at any time of the year.
