Our Family

Community is a place where people live together.

Our Community

The preschoolers identified themselves as an important member or these groups. 

Roles are parts that everyone play. We have the Superheroes like Batman, Spiderman and other characters in movies. 

But what are the things that they do? Those are their responsibilities. Just like us, we all have our responsibilities. 

The Family

Family is the smallest group in a community. 

Some families are big. Some families are small.

But they live together in the same house and do things together and take care of each other.

 

Using their puppets the preschoolers imagined and created a story of things that they did as a family. They had so much fun presenting in the class, changing their voices creating background sounds and simply telling their stories!

We also played the Yes, No, Maybe corners where the students decided if they agreed or disagreed with the questions given to them about the responsibilities of the different members in the family. 

Then, they drew the different things I DO with my family. 

And the things that I WISH we do as a family. 

The preschoolers are spending a lot of time becoming thinkers, realizing that not all families are the same. But there are some things that are common to all such as: Enjoying meals together, traveling together and spending time together. 

Next week we will FIND OUT more about the responsibilities in the family and the importance of making sure we all do our part in the family.
