The Three Bears and Goldilocks
Storytime and Play: We will be reading the classic tale of The Three Bears and Goldilocks this week. Your children will have the opportunity to engage in a fun and interactive session where they can act out parts of the story!
Theater Celebration (Read below to learn more about the theater): Our students will be able to act out a special performance of The Three Bears and Goldilocks at the theater. It promises to be an exciting and magical experience for all.
Math Sizes: The Three Bears had items in sizes Large, Medium, and Small. This week, we will explore these concepts through hands-on activities to help children understand the differences in sizes.
I can participate in roles.
I can retell a story.
I can tell you what size an object is.
I can work with others.
I can use scissors.
Letter from Mrs. Schmidt
Dear Families,
I am excited to announce that the Dramatic Play Center is being transformed into a Theater! We will build math, literacy, and social skills during our pretend play!
Play is powerful. Learning through play creates meaningful learning opportunities. Your child will be...
Using rich theme-related vocabulary and developing their oral language as they pretend and interact with their friends
Developing reading comprehension and fluency skills as they retell and act out various books
Developing a sense of story as they use props to act out and create various story elements as they retell the story (characters, setting, events)
Developing math skills as they count money, create receipts, weigh candy, and match the Theater prices and seat numbers
Sorting "candy" and cups by size and color
Students are constantly building social skills during pretend play, too! During play, students will take turns, share, wait, control their impulses, and express their feelings through appropriate gestures, actions, and words.
