 Main Goals
To help children develop a sense of math
around them, to notice and use numbers,
and to use math concepts to explore their
world.
● use numbers and counting to
explore their world.
● notice shapes, patterns, and
colors.
● use math to communicate things
about their world (how long
something is, how heavy it is)
To help children develop language and
literacy skills for incorporation into their
daily and school life.
● Oral language skills
● Vocabularies
● Conversations with other children
and adults
● Proficiency in language
● Literacy skills related to writing and
reading
● Letters of the alphabet
● Listening comprehension

Griffin recognizes the first letter of
his name "G" by saying "G is for
Griffin". He identifies at least 2
letters that are not included in his
name.

James counts on the art table how
many colors of paint he uses. On the
table are 7 colors that will be chosen
by the children to use. James counts
the colors by skipping from 5 to 7
instantly.
 Overall Plan/Learning Objectives

Math

The child will be able to correctly

classify a numerical series.
Represented in a dynamic where the
children will be able to search and
identify the numbers written on the
balloon as well as on the card, this
directed as a group or individual
activity.
Students will be able to recognize and
name different shapes they see in their
classroom and environment as well as
classify shapes into categories
according to their attributes.
 Language

The child will be able to differentiate

the different letter patterns. This is
done through the use of clothespins
and cards that will help the child(ren)
explore their language and fine motor
skills.
The student will be able to
recognize the characteristics of
the letters, identifying their
names and being able to
pronounce at least 4 letters out
loud, implemented in their play
time as well as in their
implementation activities.
 Implementation

February 4 2021 by 9:36 am

During the implementation of the

elaboration of the turtles using letters and geometric figures,
approximately 6 children participated, of which 4 were able to
distinguish and correctly pronounce the names of both.
Julia, Genevieve and Griffin were able to engage in conversations
that allowed them to use mathematical language, using words such
as: Biggest, smallest, as well as similar and non-similar
characteristics, for example:
Julia told Griffin that the circle was like a ball and had no corners
like the square.

Griffin, Diya and Genevieve were making
their turtles when Genevieve commented
"Does anyone have any more pink

pink ones but I have blue circles"
Genevieve said "Oh ok I'll take them".
Upon hearing this Griffin commented
"Can I have a blue circle too?"

card for last and look for 15 to 20?"

In the language activities Benjamin
demonstrated his ability to recognize patterns
through clothespins and flashcards. I mentioned
"I found the letter R" showing the clothespin
with the letter "T", Benjamin corrected me and
said "Miss Jocy, that's not the R look" he then
showed me his card with the letter R and said
"That's the letter T, I found the R! They don't
look alike"
