WHAT'S HAPPENING IN EARLY LEARNERS?
This week we continued to explore our family unit. Our students learned about different family structures and what they can look like. We brainstormed where families can live, what families like to do together and what families enjoy eating together. Our students shared who is in their family and we counted how many people in each. In dramatic play the students learned how to care for a baby and the various roles family members play.
There was no Grady's group this week.
SPEECH WITH MISS NATHANSON
This week in speech group, we reviewed positional words. While looking at pictures, the students used positional words to describe where objects were in the picture. We also practiced following directions with positional words in them. Using these words will continue to help expand our students' vocabulary as well as build their ability to follow and give directions.
