All about me
Investigate who they are — their likes, strengths, family background and what makes them special — and the important people in their world (family, carers, friends, teachers, community helpers)
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“All about me means sharing likes, strengths, and important people who help you — and one way you are special. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.”
Bring to the table
- Paper for an “All about me” page
- Pencil and optional photos or stickers
Extra for the adult
Worked example. I like drawing. I am good at sharing. Mum helps me. I am special because I tell funny stories.
Optional challenge. For All about me, add one community helper and what they do.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: likes/strength; helpers; same/special; support used. This session samples self-awareness, not mastery of identity theory.

1 approach
All about me means sharing likes, strengths, and important people who help you — and one way you are special. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.
Spend about 12 minutes making an All about me page, naming important people, then checking one same/special sentence.

Check understanding
- Make an 'All about me' page showing their name, likes, favourite things and something they are good at
- Name the important people in their world (e.g. family, carers, friends, teacher, a community helper) and say what each does for them
- Say one way they are the same as a classmate and one way they are special
“Can your child tell you about themselves — what they like and are good at — and name the important people in their life and what each one does for them?”
