BUILDINGS
Dear parents,
Buildings are everywhere in our community. They vary in size, color, construction, material, function and location. Children enter and exit buildings every day as they leave and return home or school. This study offers many opportunities to explore buildings firsthand.
We have looked at our school building and many pictures of buildings. There are also some interesting buildings here in our school’s neighborhood. This week we focused on the question “What do buildings in our school and in other places look like?” Children were encouraged to look out the window on their way to school to observe buildings and also observe buildings that are part of our school. We also focused on a new vocabulary word: map. We have seen maps pointing out features, places and important buildings. We even made our own classroom map.
Coming up: Bringing Literature to Life!
Have a wonderful weekend,
PK3 Team
