No Outsiders: That's not how you do it! Ariane Hofmann-Maniyar

                                
              
A small number of the picture books used in the No Outsiders scheme are now out of print so I have replaced them with new books that fit the No Outsiders ethos.
All picture books used in No Outsiders can be ordered from letterboxlibrary

Text: That’s not how you do it by Ariane Hofman-Maniyar
Lesson plan by Andrew Moffat / equalitiesprimary
Learning intention: To accept people are different
Success criteria: I know we do some things in the same way, I know we do some things in different ways, I know it’s ok to be different
Starter: Show the children a simple maths sum such as 12+9 and ask for a child to solve it and explain to the class how they worked it out. Now ask the children if anyone knows a different way of working out the answer. Are there any other ways? What different apparatus could we use to help us? Is there only one way of doing the sum or are there lots of different ways?
Main: Read “That’s not how you do it” and ask children to talk in partners about Lucy. What was Lucy good at? When did everything change? How do you think Lucy felt about Toshi?
We see Lucy thinking, “That’s not how you do it” but she doesn’t say it out loud, why not?
When she does shout at Toshi, does Toshi get upset? What does he do?
Role play: Say to the children we are going to role-play the part of the book where Toshi does things differently. Stand the children in a circle and ask for a volunteer to think of an action we can all do (combing hair, digging, brushing teeth, kicking a ball) encourage all children to do the action and then ask for a volunteer to be Toshi. Toshi knows a different action; ask Toshi to perform a new action and as children realise what Toshi is doing encourage them to copy that action instead. Ask for a child to be Lucy and exclaim, “That’s not how you do it!” to which the group can reply togther, “It’s ok to be different!”.
Ask for a new Toshi volunteer to start a different action and encourage children to follow the new action. Repeat with a new Lucy and the spoken lines, so that lots of children get to be Toshi and Lucy. .
Activity: At the end of the story Toshi and Lucy make stars together in different ways. Show children two different ways of making a star and ask them in pairs to make a night sky full of paper stars using both methods.
Plenary: What do you think Lucy learns in this story? Do we have to do things the same way in our class? What do we say about being different? When Toshi first meets Lucy how does she treat him? (Like an outsider). What does Lucy need to do differently next time she meets someone or something new?
Afl questions: Why is Toshi different? If Toshi came to our class and did different things, what would we say?
