What do you see in the picture? What do you think this story is about?
A little child in school was asked to draw a picture of a word and this is the picture they drew.
What do you think the word was?
The word was "safe"
Now you know the word, can you explain what the child was drawing and why they think it represents safe for them?
The child's dad shared the picture on social media and it quickly went viral. Lots of parents commented on the picture:
"beautiful"
"It bought tears to my eyes"
"warms the heart"
Why do you think such a simple picture made such a big impact on people?
Other parents started sharing similar pictures made by their children. This picture was drawn by a child asked to draw something that made them happy.
This child drew their dad.
- Do you think all children drew the same pictures? Why not?
- What do these pictures tell us about children?
- what do the pictures tell us about families today?
- How can families look different?
- Who do you think is pictured with the child in the top picture? Can we be sure who the people are?
- Does it matter?
- What does safe mean to you?
- If you were drawing a picture to show safe, what would you draw?
- What does British law say about families today? Does the Equality Act mention family as a protected characteristic? How do you think different families might be referenced in the Equality Act 2010?
- What do we say about different families at our school?
- Why is this about No Outsiders?
- Which British value is this about?
