The Learning Task

June is nationally recognized as pride month in Canada. Many institutions and organizations, including our Nation’s Parliament, fly the pride flag as a celebration of diversity. Sexual identity and gender identity and expression are important aspects of a person’s identity and sense of self. During the month of June, all Waterloo Region District School Board locations will fly the Pride flag alongside the Canadian flag.

Your turn! Think about identity and some of your unique characteristics and use this template to write a poem about you!
