Thematic Activity 01 - 10 mins
Can you find any projects, work, or activities you are proud of that you finished in this month or the month before that? Share what you've been doing.
It doesn't have to be just things from program. You can put in drawings, writing, leaves you've collected, photos you've printed. Anything you want to keep track of.
Thematic Activity 02 - 10 mins
We need to PLAN for safety.
- Do you know where your fire alarms are in your house? Fire alarms should be tested at least twice a year and the batteries replaced.
- Can you find out when was the last time your fire alarms were tested in your home?
- What month would be 6 months from the last test?
Use this list of the months to COUNT
Now you know when you and your household need to check the fire alarms again.
PRESENTER NOTE: This exercise helps with generalization of the calendar concepts you have been teaching all month. The more times something shows up and is actionable, the better it will stick.
