In social studies, students are asked to think about not only themselves, but the bigger picture of what they belong to – communities, neighborhoods, states, etc. I created these booklets to help with this thinking process.
Intended for Kindergarten, teachers can start with the “Me on a Map” titles, which starts big (my planet) and ends small (me). Students can cut out the labels and draw pictures about what they learn. This can be done in a booklet, page, or poster. Completing this portion took around a week in my kindergarten.

Afterwards, students can move on to the All About Me! Booklet, which just need to be printed front to back, folded, and stapled! As students fill out the pages, they can think about what makes them special and how they help others. This is a great keepsake for them to take home and they are so fun to look at as a teacher!
