Check-In with everyone


Hello all! 


Check in with your group, share one thing about your weekend! What did you do? How are you feeling? Does anyone have a birthday this week?

  

PRESENTERS: an * (asterisk) will mean that link goes to a file that people should also have had delivered in their packets. Different programs and districts may make different decisions about what to send. You can lead the group through the online objects and have them follow along on paper at home as appropriate. 


High Priority Vocabulary


Who loves going the movies? Remember the old Marquees with lights that would show the titles of the movies playing at the movie theatre? Using the work sheet provided, try to fill in the blank of some of the classics!  Presenter, this is a great way to use the annotate option!  


**Numbers on the Marqee Sheet**


Show & Share 


This week we will be show and sharing different parts of emergency preparedness. Today we will show and share where we keep our emergency contacts.  


  • Do you have a list of numbers and names that you carry around?
  • Do you keep those numbers saved in a phone?
  • Do you have a paper displayed in your home maybe in the kitchen or living room with all the numbers visible? 
  • Show and share, but if you can't show us, just tell us!

If you don’t have a list of emergency contacts, maybe you can get some tips from your friends.

Body break is important. Get ve your legs and take your eyes off the screen for a bit. Drink Water! 


Life Skills Story 4: New Fish


In this story, a girl decides to join the swim team and ends up getting a new job in the process. 

Read the full story today or read half and finish up tomorrow. Make sure to review the questions at the end of the story.



PRESENTERS: Read aloud with your group, or have some readers help. When reading aloud exaggerate tone and emotion somewhat to increase engagement. 

Stop reading a few times to prompt participants to VISUALIZE what the words describe. This is an important part of learning to read well which is often challenging.

Taking Breaks often is good for the soul! 


Looking Good!

 

Showing up to work or  the zoom space, presentable and ready to learn, is part of being professional. What would others think of you if you weren't prepared for the day? Sometimes we may be in a rush to get ready and forget a few things that we need keep in mind for safety.  


Together review the procedure card on washing your face. You can take turns reading each step.

Knowledge & Fun With Friends

Friday, August 14, 2020


Check-In with everyone

Hello again. Friday. Let's sing a song about Friday!


Show & Share 

Let's see that EXPIRATION DATE!


Show us the can, medicine bottle, food item, or other emergency supply that you found that has an EXPIRATION date. 


Why do things expire? What does that mean?

Is there a difference between EXPIRE, SPOIL and GO STALE?


Look at these pictures of where to find expiration dates on packages and containers:


Boxed Soy Milk

Water Jug

Medicine (Pill form)

Bread

Canned Food


  1. Which item/s probably becomes inactive when it expires instead of spoiling?
  2. Can you tell the expiration date of each item?
  3. What are some differences in how the dates are written?
  4. Sometimes the day comes before the month. That's how they write dates outside the US. 
  5. Years are often shown as just 2 digits. Like 1978 can be shown as '78, or 2011 might be written '11. When it comes to expiration dates we should always make sure the year is either the current year or in the f_________________. 

Next week Show & Share will focus on pets and how we care for them. If you have a pet, a picture of your pet, a stuffed animal that is like a pet or just a favorite animal you would like to be your pet, bring it to show on Monday. 


You don't have to HAVE your own pet, or a live pet, to participate. Just having animals that live in our community is a happy thing. Information about pets and pet care is interesting to everyone.
