'This Is Me' - I need inspiration

3 replies

DS has just gone in to Yr2 in a new school. He spent reception and Yr1 in an alternative school where no homework was set, so this is all new to us.

He's been asked to bring in a piece of work titled 'This Is Me'. It can be in any format he likes to tell his new classmates and teachers all about himself.

I'm lacking inspiration. I really am. I thought maybe he could create an A3 poster with some photos of himself and a little blurb, but the homework guidance says the school would like for the piece to be presented in any weird and wonderful way the child would like. So my idea is pretty boring.

He's only just 6, so has no idea how to make and present a video. Wouldn't have the confidence to sing a song. I did think maybe he could write a poem but I think that may be beyond him, and he certainly wasn't introduced to poetry at his previous school.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Make a cardboard shield. Divide it into four quarters. Picture in each part to sum him up?
Weird and wonderful Hw?! Confused

I'd probably just get him to paint a picture of himself and write facts in little bubbles around it
Or a playdoh model/Lego model etc in the same fashion
