Life Education Learning Modules

I’m Different (Year 3 & 4)

Outline Students are introduced to the components of our personalities, which is housed in the brain that also controls all body functions as well as the 5 senses. Students discuss how their personalities make them unique and special, and the importance of recognising that other people are unique and special as well. We explore the human body especially the brain focussing on some of the things that make it such an important organ.
Key messages
  • Everyone is different, we all have our own skills.
  • Our personalities make us different and our personalities are housed in our wonderful brains.
Focus
  • It’s OK to be different, if we are all different then we are all very special and so everyone needs to be treated as such.
“We are learning to…”
  1. Understand that we are all different.
