me about what he has done or is doing that day. He is good at cutting and writing words. He
loves to jump rope and hop on one foot when we go play outside and he loves cars. On our
introduction activity we played a game with smarties where we got to know each other. He
told be about his sister who he likes to jump rope with during lunch, how he likes to play
basketball and skate, and how his favourite colour is yellow, but he also likes orange and blue
as well. After we finished the game, he brought me a book and I read it to him and tried to get
For the spring chick craft, Harvey drew and cut out two circles for his chick’s heads. We both
then glued and put tissue paper on the plate we got that the heads were attached to. He did
not need help with the activity besides me telling him what to do, but other then that he could
have done it all on his own. I only helped him with the tissue paper to speed things along.
He was very good at following instruction; I would tell him what we were doing, and he would

To solve that we just spread out more of the tissue paper to cover as much of the plate as we
could, and in the end, it turned out well and Harvey seemed happy with it.
From what I have observed from my busy so far is that he likes to play alone or with his sister
during lunch time. So far, I have not seen him talk to many other kids or play with them. He
seems friendly but also likes to do his own thing alone, away from people. He likes to pick
objects and structures to play with that are usually things you do on your own. What he
chooses to do during his play time links back to my inquiry question on how what kids play with
demonstrates their emotional development. From what I have seen from Harvey, he might
continue to grow up being quiet and like to be on as he grows or drift toward his sister because
she is known to him and more of a safe and comfortable option, and it might take him a bit
