CALM Core Competencies All ABOUT ME

Hello my name is Melvin the Monkey.

I am going to share some information about me to you and I am hoping you will share areas of your home and community that are special to you.

I live in the African rain forest with my mom, my dad, my brothers Mosi and Maxwell and my sisters Maha and Malika. In Africa, we love to sing music, dance and make art. I am really good at learning all the different dances and I enjoy beading as it is a big part of my family’s culture. I also like to swing on tree branches, play with my friends from different tribes and eat my mom’s delicious banana muffins.

Now it is your turn to tell me about you…
