This fun lesson uses the Bluey episode "Race" as the kickoff to a classroom conversation about what it means to run your own race. It's important not to compare ourselves with others, and we also need to learn how to cheer on our friends. The lesson includes printables for three activities in which kids complete a maze to help Bingo, Bluey, and Mum on their own paths to learn different skills, cheer for each other as they complete different tasks, and make cards for someone who's been working hard.
