Exploring Similarities and Differences with Elephant and Piggie (Optional)
Information for students
Exploring characters is important in stories. Every author creates characters with different personalities
on purpose. If we listen and read closely, we can always describe the characters that the author
created. The description will include both their physical traits and their personality.
Do you know about Elephant and Piggie? What are they like? If you did not know, they are characters
in a book series created by the author Mo Willems.
1. Click the link to listen to the story Watch Me Throw the Ball, by Mo Willems:
https://safeYouTube.net/w/3D4H
2. Which character did you like more? Why did you choose that character? Which character can
you relate to? Discuss these questions with an adult or a friend.
3. On a piece of paper or in a notebook, make three columns. At the top of the page, write “Gerald
(Elephant)” on the left side, “Piggie (Pig)” on the right side, and write “Both” in the middle. On
Gerald’s side, describe all the things about Gerald (what he looks like, what he likes to do, how
he acts in the story, and if he seems good or bad). On Piggie’s side, describe Piggie (what does
Piggie look like, what does Piggie like to do, how Piggie acts in the story, and does Piggie seem
good or bad).
4. Once you have filled out both sides, try to find things that Gerald and Piggie have in common
(how are they the same) and write it in the middle.
5. What does your page look like? Do Gerald and Piggie have things in common? Or are they
mostly different? What makes them such good friends? Do you have a friendship like these
two? Talk about these questions with an adult or a friend.
6. Look at the appendix. There is a blank Elephant and Piggie page for you to complete. Think
about what you know about these characters (what they are like, how they act) and try to write a
new page for Mo Willems. Do not forget to colour the page when you are finished!
Materials required
• Blank paper or notebook
• Copy of the worksheet attached in the appendix
• Pen or pencil
• Device with Internet access
• Crayons or coloured pencils

Cherry Blossom Finger Painting
Information for students
In this activity, you will use your breath and fingers to create a beautiful spring landscape. Cherry
blossoms are flowers that are pollinated by bees and become cherries! You might want to include a bee
or two in your painting.
Instructions
• This project has 2 steps. The first step will be to paint the background. You will have to let it dry
before you paint the tree trunk and cherry blossoms. The thicker the paint, the longer it will take
to dry.
• Paint the background for your cherry tree. Mix white and blue paint together to get a shade of
blue that you like. Imagine the paper is divided into three equal parts and paint the top two parts
blue like the sky. You might want to add some clouds.
• Paint the grassy area. Mix the green and white paint together to make a shade of green that you
like. Remember the top and bottom parts do not have to be perfectly straight or equal since the
landscape seldom is. You can make rolling hills and slopes in the grass.
• Take some brown paint and add some water to it. Put some paint on your brush and drop it onto
the bottom of the page where you want the tree trunk to start.
• Take the straw and get close to the table. Blow through the straw to move the paint on the
paper up toward the sky. Keep adding paint to create branches and direct the paint by moving
the straw to the right or left.
• While the brown paint dries, take the red and white paint and mix different shades of pink. You
will want to have two, three, or four different shades with some that are darker and some that
are lighter.
• Dip your finger into the paint and start making flowers all over the branches. Cover all the
branches until you are happy with the tree.
• Don’t forget to sign your masterpiece!
Materials required
• Thick white paper for painting
• Paint brush
• Paper plate
• Straw
• Paint in the following colours: red, white, blue, green, brown, yellow (optional)
Elementary – Grade 1

Children could:

• choose to paint bumblebees or other insects or birds

Parents could:

Ethics and Religious Culture
It’s a Small World After All (Part 2 of 2)
Part 2 – Day 2
Information for students
Were you able to identify a culture in your family? What customs and traditions did you find? What
country do they represent?
Think about how everyone’s identity shapes the way they see and interact with the world. For example,
if you’re biracial, or if you were born in one province and now live in a different province, you’re part of
two different worlds.
Share the results of the first part of this activity that you did last week. Maybe you can make a Venn
diagram based on each other’s findings with the family member or friend who did the activity with you,
or plot on a large map the origins of each family. Using the self-portrait and bubbles from Part 1, try to
draw on the back of a piece of paper something about the country or countries your family is from,
based on what you talked about with them. Ask an adult for help to search the Internet for the flag or
pictures of that country. Maybe you could print them out and colour them, like in the example below. Or,
maybe you could find an artifact that represents your culture.
Materials required
• Information pages (attached)
• Crayons or markers
• Song It’s a Small World (attached)
• Globe (optional)
• Device with Internet access

Ethics and Religious Culture
What did you discover today? Did you notice any similarities with your friend? What kind of differences
did you notice? How do these differences affect us? Don’t forget the song It’s a Small World.
Extended activity: Choose a culture from the pictures on the following page that is different
from yours, but that you would like to learn more about. Share your finding, and compare and
contrast with your own.
Link to illustration
Information for parents Help your child to define and to self-identify. What makes us special and unique?
Help your child to understand similarities and differences, whether as a province or country.
Use a map of Canada or of the world, an excellent teaching tool, even for this age

Ethics and Religious Culture
It’s a Small World
It's a world of laughter, a world of tears,
It's a world of hopes and a world of fears,
There's so much that we share, that it's time we're aware,
It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small, small world.
There is just one moon, and one golden sun,
And a smile means friendship to everyone,
Though the mountains divide, and the oceans are wide,
It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small, small world.
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all.
