During December we will be sharing the lesson plans published by Highland Council’s Equalities Improvement Group and LGBTI+ sub-group to support the development of Equality and Diversity across the curriculum. 18 picture books have been selected; for each picture book there have been lessons created for Early – Fourth Levels (Curriculum for Excellence) driven by the Literacy and English and Health and Wellbeing Experiences and Outcomes.

Today’s Lesson: ‘King and King’ – Linda De Haan

Once there lived a prince whose mother decreed that he must marry by the end of the summer. So began the search to find the prince’s perfect match and he found him… his name was Lee.

‘King and King’ is a great text which promotes and celebrates family diversity, challenging some of the stereotypes promoted in traditional fairytales to ensure that everyone feels that they belong.
