Main Idea:<\/strong> Field Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n Literacy Activity <\/strong>(10 minutes):<\/em><\/strong> Draw and write outside with chalk.

It is important for your child to have time to be creative and use their imagination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Clean-Up:<\/em> Provide a warning before it is time for your child to clean up, so they can bring an end to their play. Then have them clean up, or help clean up, the toys they were playing with. It should not be your job to clean up after your child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n End (Review):<\/em> Ask your child \u201cWhat did you do today?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n *Mention what they told you at the start and see if they did do that or if they chose to do something different. It is ok if they change their mind and do something different.*<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Extra Activity <\/strong>(10 minutes):<\/em><\/strong> Make your own bubbles. Use a spoonful or 2 of dish soap, add \u00bc cup of water and stir. Use bubble wands to blow bubbles.
