The All About Me Unit focuses on "self" and emotions. This unit is normally used in the lower elementary grades, but can be used with upper elementary. Bring in pictures of Lucy showing different kinds of emotions. The kids will love to see the different type of faces that she makes. Have them guess her emotions in the different pictures.
"Lucy Tells the Truth" - My class loves to watch the scene where Lucy is facing the knife thrower, surrounded by balloons. This is a good episode on telling the truth.
"The Inferiority Complex" - Lucy thinks she is inferior, but of course we all know she is not!
"The Diet" - Lucy loses weight to try to fit into a dress. Excellent musical number of "Cuban Pete/Sally Sweet."
"Lucy's Fake Illness" - Lucy contracts the gobloots from a boo-shoo bird!
"The Kleptomaniac" - Ricky and Fred think Lucy is stealing!
"The Saxophone" - Lucy is determined to play the saxophone so she can go with Ricky when he goes on tour.
"Lucy's Last Birthday" - Lucy thinks everyone has forgotten her birthday, but the whole time, they were planning her surprise party.
"Lucy is Envious" - Lucy and Ethel dress up like Martians to make money for a friend's charity drive.
"Lucy Writes A Novel" - Lucy shows her determination again. This time she writes a novel, even though the others kind of laugh.
"Lucy Cries Wolf"- This is another episode on the importance of telling the truth.
