Students can bring in any objects they would like for their “Me” bag. This provides a choice and makes it easier for them to talk about the objects. Students are working with partners which can help students talk out their ideas with someone and support each other. Students are moving around during the lesson, have opportunities to talk and to listen. During the poster part of the lesson, students will be able to draw pictures, use labels, or write sentences.,  At the end of the lesson, the “same” and “different” stick will let students participate without putting them on the spot to talk.
