Using http://www.myavatareditor.com/ younger elementary students can recognize their differences in a fun way! This website allows you to create your own avatar that can be compatable with Nintendo Wii. It allows students to create their own eye color, hair color, face shape, ect. This is another way to help build students esteem as they celebrate who they are! Since the world is becoming so globalized it will be important for sutdents to recognize other cultures and be respectful of others. This activity could be tied in with a lesson about culture and students' parents could be invited to come in and share interesting things about their heritage. On the left you can see an example of an avatar that I made of myself.
