Who's in a Family?


Who's in a Family? by Robert Skutch is a book that shows many examples of how families can be made up. These examples include differences in gender, race, and even includes animal families. It is an easy book to read that any student could relate to. In the back of the book there is a blank template that a classroom teacher could create and hand out to their students. The students can then fill in, color, draw, describe their own families and what makes them unique. I liked this book as a way to get to know your students better. This book could invoke a lot of conversation in the classroom which would only benefit myself as a future teacher because it would allow me to view my students home lives as they view them.
