For next week, October 26, please do the following homework:
Plan a preschool day
Use the handout given in class to plan a three hour preschool day for 3-4 year olds. The handout includes a timeline along with a place to describe each activity and it’s purpose. Be specific as you explain how each activity promotes development. To get you started, here are two videos to watch for ideas. You can also do more research by finding your own videos and resources. There is a lot of information out there! Note: this is an imaginary preschool day. You won’t have to use it for real 🙂
BYU Child Development Lab Visit
Next week we will be visiting the Child Development Lab at BYU. We will be leaving immediately after Core ends, so go straight to the parking lot instead of our classroom. Don’t be late! And remember to think of possible questions to ask the director during our visit.
