If you classify by colorthe banana, tennis ball and lemon are all yellow.
TENNIS BALL IS NOT A FRUIT—IT CANNOT BE EATEN
If you classify by function the orange,the banana and the lemon are all fruitand can be eaten.
LEMON IS ROUND, IS YELLOW AND IS A FRUIT!—IT BELONGS TO ALL GROUPS SO…
…it does not belong. None of the other items belong to all three classifications: round, yellow and fruit. The one that
belongs-- doesn’t! It is a category by itself.
THOUGHTSThe one that doesn’t belong may still
have a place!
Sometimes the most obvious difference isn’t the difference.
You have to work hard to exclude something or someone from the group.
It is not easy and should not be!
Now apply this to children—and consider
ALL CHILDREN ARE CHILDREN FIRST ANDEVERY CHILD IS SPECIAL WE DON’T LABEL CHILDREN BUT…SOMETIMES WE DO!
