School days

Content Objectives

Children will:

  • Learn about the concept of going to school.
  • Access prior knowledge and build background about how they have felt on the first day of school.
  • Explore and apply the concept of what stays the same every year at school and what feels different from previous school years.

Language Objectives

Children will:

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the concept of school days.
  • Orally use words that describe tools they use during a school day.
  • Extend oral vocabulary by speaking about what is the same and what is different from their last school year.
  • Use key concept words [classroom, teacher, books, pencils, different]

Explain

Explain that children are going to learn about school days:

  • What tools we use in school.
  • What is different when you start a new school year.
  • What stays the same when you start a new school year.

Model

Ask children: What does a teacher do? (helps you learn). What are some things you learn from a teacher? (reading, math, science, social studies, etc.) Ask children: Look around our classroom. What do you see that helps you learn? (books, rulers, crayons, calendars, etc.) Say: When we start a new school year, there are things that change and things that stay the same. How are the tools on your desk the same as last year? (same tools for writing; same tools for measuring) How are they different? (longer books; calculator; etc.)


Apply

Have children play the games that follow. Have them discuss with their partner the different topics that appear during the Talk About It feature. After the first game, ask children to talk about tools that help them learn at school. After the second game, have them discuss their favorite subject in school.


Close

Ask children: What is different about this school year? Explain. Summarize for children that we go to school to learn. A teacher helps us learn. We also use tools to help us learn. Some tools we use are books, pencils, notebooks, and rulers. Encourage children to think about how different tools help them learn at school.
