Activity 1
Pair work. Talk about their opinions.
1: Did you have the same thoughts as Xiao Ya
2: Do you agree with mom Why or why not
3: What can we learn according to mom's opinion
Yes, I agree with mom. Because true beauty comes from confidence and being yourself, not just from appearance. Also, everyone has their own strengths, like Xiao Ya is good at math and running.
Maybe sometimes. For example, when I wear new clothes, I might worry about how I look and compare myself with others.
We can learn that real beauty is about confidence and being yourself. Everyone is special in their own way. We should focus on our own strengths instead of comparing ourselves to others.
