Lesson Summary
In this lesson, students will explore the concept of difference. They will begin by considering an image associated with the familiar phrase “if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” They will discuss the suitability of the task for the various animals in the image, and then progress to developing obstacle courses that consider the abilities of each animal. They will then relate this to us as people, completing an obstacle course themselves.
