Talking Points

• "Let's talk about traits. Traits are things that make each person unique. For example, Wednesday Addams is known for being dark and mysterious."

• "Interests are things that you enjoy doing or learning about. What are some things you enjoy doing in your free time?"

• "Just like Wednesday Addams has her own interests like creepy dolls and spiders, we all have our own unique interests that make us who we are."

• "It's important to embrace our traits and interests because they make us special and different from others."
