Buildings

What do people do in buildings?

For the end of our study, I asked the class "What are places that you've visited and what are people doing?" The students said, cooking at Chick-fil-A, cutting hair at a Salon, and learning at school. We setup different buildings in our class and pretended to be different characters. When your child engages in dramatic play, they are actively experimenting with the social and emotional roles of life. Through cooperative play, they learn how to take turns, share responsibility, and creatively problem-solve. When your child pretends to be different characters, they have the experience of "walking in someone else's shoes," which helps teach the important moral development skill of empathy. The students had fun!

Letter K

Fine motor skills involve the small muscles of the body that enable such functions as writing, grasping small objects, and fastening clothing. They also involve strength, fine motor control, and dexterity. To strengthen our hands, we used play-dough to make the letter K. We also worked on making the letters in their name.

Look what we built!
