Introduction to my Lesson
To start the lesson, I will gather the students in a circle and let them share their thoughts
on what makes someone a friend. I will prompt them with questions such as "What do
friends do when they are different?" This will activate their prior knowledge about
friendship and peer dynamics. Then, I will introduce Gogo and the Tookies ,
highlighting that this story involves friendship and acceptance, particularly when faced
with feelings of rejection.
