Bright Tots Campus term 3 lesson 3

Today we did


1. Sing Good Morning, I am Special, Row Row Row your boat, Drive Drive Drive your car, Drive Drive Drive your train and Twinkle Twinkle Traffic light songs


2. Teacher Shirley put up 1 piece of a 2 pieces puzzle on the wall with blue tag and let the tots go to the wall to match the puzzle


3. Teacher Shirley took out toy vehicles in the following sequence from "magic" bag - red fire engine, blue/yellow concrete mixer, blue car, yellow excavator and blue/white ambulence. She asked tots the sequence of the toy vehicles she showed and the color of the vehicle. This is to train sequential memory. Sequential memory is short term memory


4. Each tot had a toy vehicle from the "magic" bag. Teacher Shirley asked questions like which toy has no wheel (excavator), which toy has siren (ambulence), which toy has ladder(fire engine), which toy has a barrel (concrete mixer). This is to train observation skill


5. Each tot was given a piece of paper in clear folder with 8 pictures (bus, aeroplane, motor bike, ship, bicycle, jeep, train, racing car) and 8 pieces of pink color paper with the corresponding pictures. Tots had to match the pink color paper picture to the picture on the paper in the clear folder

6. Made craft sail boat. This craft teaches pre-maths concepts of shapes, colors and proportions. Apart from the basic shapes and colors like semi-circle, fuschia (highlighter pink) and lime green colors were introudced in this craft. This craft also trains eye-hand coordination and builds vocabulary (semi-circle, fuschia, lime green). Such kind of craft provides opportunities for the tot to look at shapes with different perspectives, thus training an eye for details and sharpens observation skills. A triangle can be a sail, a semi-circle can be the hull of the boat7. Teacher Shirley flashed cards of vehicles and asked tots the sequence of the flash cards She said can train sequential memory with flash cards or real toy as in item 3
