Explore Self-Awareness

Resource Description:

In this exemplar video, a teacher engages a child in a writing activity where he has the opportunity to draw and describe himself. Notice how the teacher asks questions such as, “What is your mouth doing?” and “What are you going to draw next?” These questions encourage the child to think about and describe his own features. When he shares, “I have big hair,” he is demonstrating self-awareness by noticing and naming something unique about himself.
