Ask kids to introduce themselves and say which of the following animals they most identify with: eagle, dolphin, lion, sparrow, whale, or unicorn. (Use fewer animals for groups of 10 or fewer.)

Then have kids group themselves according to the animals they chose. Direct kids to answer the following three questions in their small groups.

• What is one thing all of you have experienced that many other people have not?
• What is one thing all of you believe in?
• What is one thing all of you are afraid of?
