What words come to mind when you hear identity?
Use this to surface prior ideas such as self, family, beliefs, hobbies, friends or personality. Pick out both shared and different responses.
Identity and social groups
Identity is who you are.
It includes your thoughts, feelings, choices and experiences.
A social group is a group you belong to, such as friends, family, a sports team or a class.
People in the same group can still be very different from each other.
Keep this rooted in PSHE: identity here is about personal and social understanding, not a deep psychological model.
What influences identity?
Beliefs
Values
Personality
Family
These factors can shape how we think, act and relate to other people.
Explain that these factors influence identity, but no one factor fully defines a person.
Four identity factors
The principles a person thinks matter, such as fairness, honesty or kindness.
Ideas a person thinks are true or important.
Values
Beliefs

Matching the factors
Beliefs - ideas a person thinks are true or important
Values - principles a person thinks matter
Personality - the way a person usually thinks, feels and behaves
Family - the people and home life that shape habits, traditions and views
The teacher asked for a starter quiz. Since this deck must contain content slides only, this slide provides the matched definitions clearly so it can support a verbal or separate matching task.
Which factor means principles that matter to a person?
Personality
Values
Family
Beliefs
Starter quiz linked to the definition-matching slides. Distractors are the other three identity factors.
Complete the identity summary
Identity is shaped by different factors. Beliefs are ideas a person thinks are true or important. Values are the principles a person thinks matter. Personality is the way a person usually thinks, feels and behaves. Family can shape habits, traditions and views.
All four blanks come directly from the definition slides, so this reinforces the teacher's requested starter matching task.
People can be in the same group and still be different
Two friends may enjoy different hobbies.
Two team members may have different personalities.
Two classmates may have different beliefs or family backgrounds.
Belonging to one group does not make everyone the same.

Differences help us learn
We hear new ideas.
We see different viewpoints.
We can learn new skills and interests.
Link back to social groups: difference is not a problem to fix, but something that can strengthen a group.
Positives of being different
Different people bring different strengths.
Groups can become more creative.
People can feel proud of who they are.
Respect grows when we understand one another.
A group can solve problems in more than one way.

Difference and belonging
You can belong to a group and still be yourself. Social groups are stronger when people are respected for both what they share and what makes them unique.
This is the landing idea for the lesson's central question: being different does not stop belonging.
What is one positive of being different in a group?
Less respect
More arguments
More creativity
Less belonging
Checks the core idea from slides 8 to 10 that difference can strengthen a group.
Name one shared thing and one difference in a group.
Expected ideas: one shared feature and one difference within a social group; examples may include hobbies, beliefs, values, personality or family background. Encourage respectful comparisons.
Looking at my social groups
You may belong to several social groups.
In each group, you might share some things with others.
You might also have different hobbies, beliefs, values, personality traits or family experiences.
These similarities and differences are both part of identity.

Examples of differences in a group
Hobbies - sport, gaming, art, reading
Backgrounds - traditions, languages, experiences
Personality - quiet, confident, organised, funny
Values or beliefs - what matters to different people
Use these examples to prepare students for noticing difference without judging it.
Seeing identity in a social group
A group can include many identities.
Shared interests connect people.
Differences add variety and strength.
This slide supports the collage idea without turning it into an activity instruction.
Key message
Identity is shaped by beliefs, values, personality and family. In social groups, people can have things in common and still be different. Those differences can be positive for the group and for each person.

In social groups, people can have things in common and still be different. These differences can be positive for the group and for each person.
