Kindergarten, week 2, day 4

Day 9 of 180 · Science: My five senses · about 70 minutes

Reading20 min

Read: Man, Pan, Map

  1. Read it together: you read each page, and your child points to the words and finds the letters they know (a and t).
  2. When your child is stuck, say the first sound and let them finish the word, rather than saying the whole word.
  3. Afterward, ask: where did the story happen? How do you know?
Math20 min

Zero

  1. Put 3 crackers on a plate and eat them one at a time, counting down: 2, 1, 0.
  2. Zero means none. Show an empty ten frame and say zero together.
Science15 min

Tasting

  1. Taste something sweet, something salty, something sour and something plain.
  2. The tongue does the tasting, and the nose helps: try a taste while holding your nose.
Read-aloud15 min

Read-aloud: Hum Under My Hand

  1. Read “Hum Under My Hand” aloud, and let your child turn the pages.
  2. This one is true. Afterward, ask: what is one new thing you learned? Then find one more fact in it together.
  3. On the read-along you can show the pages on a big screen, or let it read the words aloud while each one lights up.
