Work Time
Turn off those screens and play with some toys, color, paint… anything you can think of!
Planning Time (5 minutes): 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..).
Work Time (45-60 minutes): During work time kids play WITHOUT ELECTRONICS. Kids can use toys to pretend play, build, and create.
Clean Up (about 15 minutes): Kids clean up the mess they have made while playing.
Recall Time (5 minutes): 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?”)
Assignment
Only three more days until we say goodbye to this school year. Today we’re going to read a story called, “Look out Kindergarten, Here I come!” It might look familiar, this is the story I read when we had our class google hangout a few weeks ago!
- Today I want you to think about what you want to be when you grow up. A doctor, a lawyer, a florist, a teacher, a ballerina, a business owner? You can be anything you set your mind to! In your journal today draw a write about what you want to be when you grow up. I can’t wait to see the pictures!
2. It’s my birthday today! Draw a birthday cake, guess how old I am and draw that number of candles on it. When you’re done write that number and send me a picture. I can’t wait to see your guesses! 😁🎂
- Ex. If you think I’m 7, draw 7 candles and write the number 7.
- Ex. If you think I’m 100, draw 100 candles ans write the number 100.
3. Read together for 20 minutes.
4. Get outside, go for a walk or play in your backyard! If you can’t, shake your sillies out with the Learning Station!
Have a great day!
