WEEKLY REMOTE LEARNING PLANNING FORM ROOM #10

WEEKOF: 10/26/20 TEACHER’S NAME: Diana

Day of the Week DAILY FOCUS (Focuses on the unit’s student outcomes- Daily Focus Question/ Lesson)

Play focus[Planting seeds for play activities (aka learning centers) Insert 4 additional DETAILED center ideas/ activities DAILY- this does not include art, writing, literacy]

MondayDate: 10/26/20

Daily Focus: The teacher will introduce the unit and go over the five senses anchor chart, what the five senses are, and what they do. The teacher will lead a sing-along to the five senses song, while modeling the movements to the song. The teacher will introduce this week’s topic of hearing. What body part do we use to help us hear? We use our ears! What things can we hear? The class will work together to create a chart of things you can hear such as music, instruments, singing, talking, cars, etc.

Group Goal For The Week: There are five senses: sight, taste, smell, touch, and hearing. We use our ears to hear. All people have ears that are used to hear. There are items that make sounds we can hear, and there are items that don’t make sounds. There are sounds we hear happening outside, like cars, police and fire trucks, rain, etc. When we hear a fire alarm, that may mean that there’s a fire and we need to leave the building in a safe and fast manner. If we catch on fire, we need to STOP, DROP and ROLL. When there’s a fire, a firetruck with firemen come to help us by putting out the fire. Firemen help keep us safe from fires. We can use our ears to hear a fire alarm, and to hear the firetruck coming.

1. Literacy: Letter of the week: P Word of the week: Pig

Click the link below to view “The letter P” song. Encourage your student to watch the video and repeat the letter and the sound it makes out loud. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWM1ICrcqRs

2. Writing: Encourage students to write the word of the week (Pig). Or, encourage the student to trace the word “pig”. (Write ‘pig’ in large clear letters for the student to use as an example or to trace. What does a pig look like? What color are they? What noises do they make?

3. Art: Create instruments by gluing materials to plastic bowls or plates. (You can use strings, aluminum foil, or just pots with a spoon to hit on to play music) Encourage students to use materials they can find in the classroom (or at home) to create their own instruments. What do the instruments sound like? What senses are we using?

What body parts are we using?

4. Math: Providing students with different textures, students will be encouraged to sort the textures into piles with similar textures. Students in the classroom will be able to glue these textures onto a piece of paper. Remote families are encouraged to use different clothes and materials found at home to practice these skills. You may use fluffy blankets, soft clothing, wools, and any other materials found at home. Rather than gluing the materials, your child at home can draw pictures of the items they sorted. Encourage them to express what the item felt like.

5. Science: Giving students various instruments (or pots and pans or any other materials you have at home), encourage students to play the instruments and explore the sounds they make. What sounds do they like? What sounds don’t they like? Which of your senses are you using? How can we use our ears?

6. Blocks: Encourage students to build tunnels. What are tunnels and what can we hear when we are in a tunnel? Encourage students to use their 5 senses. Remote families are encouraged to use any materials they have available to them. Tunnels can be built from the empty rolls of paper towels or toilet paper.

7. Sensory: Giving students a bowl of water with soap, and various materials/toys, encourage the child to use the toys/materials to play with the water. What does it sound like when the toy goes in? What about when you splash it around in the water? Encourage them to use all five of their senses.

What body part do we use to help us hear? We use our ears! What things can we hear? The class will work together to create a chart of things you can and can’t hear. The teacher will print out pictures of items to categorize (items you can hear: a bell, a police car, a fire truck, doorbell, etc.) (Items you can’t hear: various foods and objects).

(You can use beads, buttons, or anything small that you have around the house. Cover one end of the tube and secure it with a rubber band. Encourage your child to place items in the tube. Cover the other end of the tube and secure it with a rubber band. Shake the tube! What sounds do you hear? What does it sound like?
