Finger Play, Age-Appropriate Game, Science Activity, Non-book Story, Book, Other throughout the day (in general and for specific children):
Transition: We are the dinosaurs -In math, give assistance if needed to the children as they sort with
–-Books: Can I have a stegasaurus? colors at the math table.
—animal movements game with dice. -Teachers should encourage the children to engage with others during
—fingerplay: Five little speckled frogs dramatic play and work with each other.
—Itsy Bitsy spider-song -In the science area, ask questions as you put the tablet in like Why do
—Mouse in the house you think its bubbling? etc.
—Book: Are you my mother? -Teachers should engage M to engage in other activities that he
doesn’t normally want to be.

How I expect to:

● Develop relationships with individual children: Create meaningful relationships with the children by asking questions to engage their learning.
Add some humor for the child as you interact with them and just be fun to the child for the dramatic play, field trip, and other areas.
● Support children in developing relationships with others: Help the children to interact with each other with certain areas such as dramatic
play, sorting, blocks, etc., so that they can work together. During the Field Trip, encourage the children to have a buddy so that they can
interact with each other and also keep track of each other.
● Establish a safe community of learning: Teachers should continue with headcounts and during the field trip take certain products to ensure
the safety of the children.
● Establish/manage group expectations: Work with the children to help with sharing, using their words, and regulating their emotions. Use the
charts given to help the children know their emotions and how to help them. With the Child 150 students coming in encourage them to do
good.
● Provide opportunities for holistic development: Ask the children questions to enhance their understanding and that allows them to think.
Also, encourage the children to go outside as many activities aid in their physical development and that they are able to paint, complete an
 obstacle course, and use the jumper.

Information from this session that can be used for the future:
● Start:
o P responds to humor more and might even want to try with E and C.
o Go outside more
o M signed during gathering time and showed the facial expressions A was doing.
● Continue
o Continue bathroom breaks.
o Fill the Dramatic play with more.
