Preparing messages and abstracts is one of the most effective teaching methods. Schoolchildren are taught to prepare projects even during environmental lessons in 2nd grade. “Our friendly family” is one of the simplest, but at the same time extremely interesting topics for both the child and his listeners. However, in order to prepare a story properly, you will first have to become familiar with its structure.
Introduction to the project
You need to start the project with introductory proposals - 3-5 pieces will be enough. They should be as informative and interesting as possible in order to hook the listener from the first minutes.
One of the most successful examples is to briefly mention why the narrator’s family is the most friendly and wonderful.
Here are some examples:
- “My family is the most friendly company in the world. When we are together, we can cope with any task. We often take part in various competitions and events and almost always win.”
- “A close-knit family is the key to a happy life. If harmony and mutual understanding reign in the house, then people will be able to overcome any difficulties. I believe that my family is like that.
- “What is a friendly family? As for me, these are people who care about each other and support loved ones in difficult times. Peace and love always reign in a friendly family. Luckily, I was lucky enough to be born into just such a family.”
Also in the introduction you can point out the features that distinguish the narrator’s family from the general background.
For example, you can talk about your grandfather or grandmother who took part in the Great Patriotic War: “My family are the descendants of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War.
We try not to forget about the exploits of our parents, we help our neighbors in peacetime, but we will be ready to protect each other from danger in war.
Main part
In the main part of a story about a family (the world around us, grade 2), the narrator usually lists the members of this family and briefly talks about what they do. Here are some successful examples:
- “My dad Mikhail Fedorovich Teterin is a very smart and brave man. He loves to play sports and ride a motorcycle. In difficult situations, he always finds a solution and never leaves us in trouble. I’m trying to become like my father so that I can also selflessly take care of my future family.”
- “Elena Viktorovna Novikova is the smartest mother in the world. She is very kind and beautiful, loves cats and indoor plants. I love my mom very much, because she not only gave me life, but also taught me to appreciate every moment in it.”
- “Savelyev Anton Viktorovich” is my grandfather (my mother’s father), with whom I go fishing on the lake almost every Sunday. This is the wisest and calmest member of our family. He is very reasonable and can do almost anything in the world. In the summer, grandfather promised to take me to the village, where we will pick mushrooms.”
- “My little sister’s name is Anyuta (Anya). She is only 3 years old, but I love her very much. Sometimes, when mom and dad go to work, they leave me at home to look after my sister. We have a lot of fun: watching cartoons, playing with blocks, and even helping mom clean the house.”
- “Kostya is my older brother. Despite the fact that we sometimes argue and swear, in difficult times he is the first to come to my aid. I think even when Kostya teases me, he wishes me well. I also like to compete with him in computer games, where I often manage to win.”
It is recommended to dilute the story with real photographs of family members to make the project look more lively and colorful. At the end of the main part, it would be useful to mention once again what wonderful people live in the student’s house.

Family traditions
Each family has its own unique mechanism for accumulating and transferring experience from one generation to another.
This is definitely worth mentioning in the “My Family” project. In 2nd grade, students may not know what traditions are, so it’s worth starting the story with a definition written in your own words.
After this, it’s worth listing point by point how exactly the narrator’s family differs from others:
- “Our main tradition is to go to the countryside with the whole family every summer. There we relax, go to the forest to pick berries and mushrooms, swim in the river and fish, and also grow vegetables and fruits in the garden. Our grandfather is a hereditary beekeeper, so almost every evening we drink tea with pancakes and honey. And our faithful dog named Shustry lives in the village. We all love to play with him when we come to the village.”
- “By tradition, every New Year we go to a resort in the mountains. There, dad teaches me to ski and snowboard, and mom takes pictures of us against the backdrop of white snow. I also really like spending cold winter evenings with my family by a real fireplace with a cup of cocoa in my hands. Mom says that it is at such moments that she most feels the comfort and warmth of the family hearth. I love family holidays!”
- “Our family is hereditary Cossacks, so we strive to preserve the traditions and customs of the Cossacks that our ancestors cherished. My grandfather is a real ataman of the Cossack army. Sometimes he lets me hold his saber, and also teaches me to ride horses. True, I’m not very good at it yet, but I will try my best to enter a military school and also become a Cossack.
In the section on family traditions, you can also talk about some of the values that were passed down to the student’s family from their ancestors .
For example, you can mention that the family has the secret of preparing a delicious meat stew that cannot be compared with food from restaurants. You can safely improvise, the most important thing is to hook the listener with something interesting that he has never heard from anyone else.
Household duties
For many students who decide to make a report, this topic may seem a little boring, but it is this topic that most often arouses the greatest interest among other teachers and students. Peers are interested in knowing what their friend does outside of school, and teachers strive to get to know the student better by examining the parenting methods used by parents.
Here are some examples:
- “I always try to help my parents around the house. When mom is cleaning, I help her dust or wash the floors. Sometimes dad needs help too. Most often we fix the car together. Of course, mostly I just hand over the right keys, but dad says it makes his job a lot easier.”
- “Besides doing homework, my duties also include washing dishes every day. Since mom and dad immediately leave for work after dinner, they don't have time to clear dirty plates and cups from the table. I come home from school and the first thing I do is wash all the dishes so that my parents can rest in the evening.”
- “I regularly help my parents around the house. My favorite thing to do is throw out trash. Also in the summer, my brother and sister and I go to the garden to weed the corn or water the seedlings. I really like taking care of plants, and at the same time helping my parents.”
- “My mom and dad are very tired at work, so doing household chores is the least I can do for them. Sometimes I have to cook dinner myself (boil dumplings, fry eggs), and sometimes I even fix some broken items.”
- “When dad is doing household chores, I try not to leave him to learn all the wisdom that my father knows. Last week, for example, we worked together to clear a clogged sink drain. It smells, of course, unpleasant, but now I can fix the sewer myself.”
If there are pets or plants in the apartment, you can also write that the narrator takes care of them. Help around the house can also include going to the grocery store and various small errands from parents.
The main thing is that such work shows that the narrator has the most friendly family in the world.
Income, budget, family expenses: “The world around us”
Project “My Family”
Family income, budget and expenses are one of the most important aspects. In the subject “The World Around us ,” the teacher tells the children how a family budget is drawn up. Students do their homework and describe their family's finances as they understand them. Below you will find an example of such a story.
The family has a common budget. Every working adult receives a salary. But he does not spend it himself, but brings it into the house in order to solve general needs with the help of this money. The family buys food for everyone. You still need to pay for utilities. Of course, if someone needs something, then the income is not divided into “father’s” and “mother’s”, it goes to general needs.
While we are schoolchildren, our parents provide for us. But I know that when we become adults, we will also work and contribute to the family budget. And then we will create our own families and live separately. A family's income and expenses are always shared. After all, these people live in the same territory, in the same house or apartment.
This does not mean that it is prohibited to spend money on yourself. But you also need to help your loved ones. My parents always help when we need clothes or notebooks, they always buy it. But mom and dad earn this money, not us.
My parents also help my grandparents financially, despite the fact that they do not live with us, but in the village. Because they are pensioners. And their pension is much less than the salary of adults. But there is also a moral side to the issue. Adult children must definitely help their parents. Especially if they are elderly and cannot work fully due to health conditions.
Sometimes our parents send us to the store for bread or milk. My brother and I always bring change. Of course, if we are told that we can buy ice cream or buns, we do it. But we always ask permission. After all, this is part of the family budget, which means we ourselves cannot decide what to spend the money on.
My family is the most friendly
The last section of the project is a short summary and return to the topic. The author needs to mention once again why his family is the most friendly in the world. You can present your evidence in the form of a bulleted list.
. For example: “My family is the most friendly because:
- we spend a lot of time together and have fun all the time;
- we help each other with household chores;
- we do not leave loved ones in trouble and strive to solve problems together;
- we care about preserving traditions and customs, passing them on from generation to generation;
- we are interested in each other’s lives and take an active part in it;
- we never betray our neighbors for material gain.”
After this, you should write a short conclusion consisting of 3-5 sentences . In it, you can once again mention what a friendly family is, and also wish the listeners to find the same people as the narrator. Although the conclusion could be more original. The most important thing is that it puts an end to the project, and is also memorable and inspiring.
Thus, writing a project on the topic “Our friendly family” is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. The most important thing is that the student has something to tell about himself and his loved ones. Also, don’t get too hung up on the project structure, adding only those sections that were described earlier.
If a student has something to add to his story, then let him do so boldly. After all, an interesting project is one that is not similar to other work.
Common family goals - “The world around us”: examples
Project “My Family”
If there are no goals in a family, then this means that it lives boringly and incorrectly. This is important, since aspirations, plans and goals should be not only for individual individuals, but also for the cells of society. Here is an example of a description of general family goals for “The World Around us” :
The family is connected not only by blood, but also by common aspirations. Take, for example, our family. Mom and Dad work to provide us with a good future.
Recently I asked my dad what family goals are. He said that at the moment the main desire is to give my brother and I a good education so that we grow up to be decent people. Dad also wants us to study well and get a promising profession. I also think this is very important.
I like that the family has a common budget. It turns out that close relatives help each other financially. Another goal of the family is to create a calm life in which there would be mutual understanding and mutual respect. This is exactly what we have.
The family is a full-fledged unit of society. There are always common issues and problems in it. My brother and I also try to help our parents. While we are children and cannot earn money, we always help around the house.
I understand that when parents come home from work tired in the evening, they are not very pleased to see mountains of unwashed dishes and untidy rooms. That's why my brother and I clean up after school. It's fast and not that difficult. But parents are always grateful to us.
