This topic was chosen by our fifth grade Banana Splits group for the student blog. During group, we talked about the many features that make our families unique. We discussed how some of our families are multi-racial, some of us have different heritages and backgrounds, and that all kids are different, which is okay because that makes us special.  

You are all invited to share thoughts about how your family is different and blog about what makes them special. Everyone is encouraged to explore their heritage and background with their parents and/or other family members and comment about what they learned.
