Head outside with a jacket for a nice walk around the block with an adult. Ms. Stafiej is going to take the dogs for a walk around the block too!
Academic Activities
We are talking about planting today! Watch the video below and plant some seeds with Mrs. Abdellah.
What do plants need to survive?
Math Activity
- Count how many seeds you are going to plant.
- Measure how far apart the seeds need to go.
- When your child is planting the seeds, ask the following questions…
- If you have different types of seeds, can you sort them?
- How many seeds are you going to plant?
- How many seeds are left?
- How many seeds have you planted so far?
Literacy Activity
- Listen to the story “The Tiny Seed” by Eric Carle
- Use your journal and crayons to draw 3 things you remember from the story
- What happened to the other seeds?
- What did you learn about plants from this story?
- Send a picture of your story to Ms. Stafiej
Lunch Time
Remember to eat your fruits and vegetables <3 Ms. Stafiej is having spaghetti with green beans.
Chore Time
Clean your spot after lunch, help to wash the dishes, clean up your toys and your room.
Quiet Time
Children have time to relax and “charge” their bodies. If your child doesn’t normally nap at home, they can read stories or do a quiet activity of your choice (no screens please!)
Work Time
| 5 to 10 minutes | Plan for Work Time: Build your child’s ability to organize their time by having them make a “plan” with you about what they would like to play with. Children do this everyday with us at school. It helps children learn to organize their thoughts. Adults make plans all the time to organize their thoughts (shopping lists are made before going to the grocery store, to do lists are made to help plan your day etc..). Kids will tell you what they are planning to do/want to play with/how they will use toys at home. التخطيط لوقت العمل ( وقت اللعب): ساعد طفلك على بناء مهارة تنظيم الوقت بوضع خطة معهم عن لعبهم. هذا ما كان يفعله كل الطلاب كل يوم في المدرسة. هذا يساعد الأولاد على تنظيم أفكارهم. الأهل أيضا يضعون خطط دائما لتنظيم أفكارهم مثل قائمة التسوق قبل الذهاب إلى المتجر, كتابة القوائم تساعد على تنظيم اليوم….. الأولاد سوف يخبروكم ما هي خطتهم/ ماذا سيلعبون/ مع من سيلعبون/ ماذا سيستخدمون من أدوات في لعبهم |
| 1 hour | Work Time: Kids play WITHOUT ELECTRONICS. Kids can use toys to pretend play, build, and create. وقت العمل : يجب أن لا يستعمل الأولاد الإلكترونيات . يستطيع الأولاد استخدام الألعاب التي تساعدهم في التخيل و البناء و الإبداع |
| 15 minutes | Clean Up Time: Kids clean up the mess they have made while playing. وقت التنظيف: ينظف الأولاد الفوضى التي نتجت عن لعبهم. |
| 5 to 10 minutes | Recall Time: Build your child’s memory of events by having your child tell you what they did while they played (ask “tell me how you did that” or “what did you do next?”) وقت التذكر: بناء ذاكرة الأولاد و مراجعة الأحداث عن طريق جعل طفلك يعيد سرد ما قام به خلال وقت اللعب( اسال طفلك: اخبرني كيف قمت بذلك؟ أو ماذا فعلت بعد ذلك؟) |
