Description

Are your students constantly coming to you with 'problems' that don't quite match their over-the-top reactions? Whether it's an empty drink bottle, a broken pencil or an untied shoelace, young children often have trouble discerning the difference between 'big problems' and 'small problems'. Use this Draw & Write activity to springboard conversations about what problems warrant a big or small reaction.


Included in this resource are three differentiated black and white sheets that allow students to think of their own 'small problem' and 'big problem', then draw and write about them.

  • Option 1: Draw a picture in the boxes using the headings 'Small Problem' and 'Big Problem'
  • Option 2: Draw a picture, with a space for the student or teacher to write a few words to describe each problem
  • Option 3: Draw a picture, with a sentence starter 'My small problem is....' and 'My big problem is...' for students to write a longer sentence about their problems.
