This lesson plan is for a kindergarten teacher named Amber Prost. The goal is for students to create an "all about me" book to share information about themselves with their classmates. Students will draw pictures of themselves on different pages, including their age by drawing candles on a cake, their family members, and their favorite colors. The teacher will assess the books for completion and to learn more about the students.

to know about me.” Then I will explain that we are going to make a book about ourselves
to share that information.
Procedures:
1. Pass out the blank booklets to the students
2. Start with the first page. Ask the students what is on the page. Then explain to the
students we are going to add candles to the top of the cake. There are going to be enough
candles to show how old they are. Show the students my example. Then give them a
couple minutes to add their candles and color their cake.
3. Go on to the second page. Ask the students what they see on this page. Explain to the
students we are going to fill in the empty picture frame by drawing a picture of their
family. Then they will label how many brothers and sisters they have under the picture
and any pets they may have. Show the students my example. Then give them time to
draw their families and label everyone in the picture.
