Lakewood for PreK: July 10

July 10, 2020 by betsy Leave a Comment

Happy Friday! We are wishing you a fun and healthy weekend. Here are three invitations for preschoolers today.

Outdoor/Science Invitation: Foil river with boats

For this invitation you will need some foil (heavy duty works best), water and a small boat or two. If you don’t have any boats, invite your child to create some from leaves or sticks. Work with your child to create a riverbed from the foil and then add a small flow of water and float the boats down the stream. Your child might have other ideas of things to float down the river as well, or it might evolve into a sink/float investigation. 

Language/Literacy Invitation: Firebird by Misty Copeland

As a literacy invitation today, we suggest sharing the book Firebird by Misty Copeland. You can find the ebook through Durham County Library, or listen to the book read aloud here. You can also find a short video of Misty dancing through this link.

Large Motor Invitation: Dance party

Fridays are a great day for a dance party!
