Purpose: This activity will allow the children to further develop their writing and thinking skills.
Observation: Last week during circle time the children were asked to show their thumbs to
indicate if they were happy/excited (thumbs up) or if they were sad/mad (thumbs down) that day.
When we went around the room asking the children for their reason as to why they had their
thumbs up or down most of the children who had their thumbs up said they were excited that it
was almost Valentines day.
Implementation
I will ask the children if they remembered the book we read called What is Love.
Then I will ask the children to think of a way to show someone they love them.
Then I will have the children share their ideas.
After they all share I will ask the children to write their idea on the paper.
Once they have finished writing out their message I will ask the children to draw a
picture of them doing the action they wrote down.
Then I will tell the children to colour the picture.
Teaching Strategies
Challenges
I will challenge the children by asking them to show me how they can sound out the words they
are trying to write.

Implementation
First, I will prepare the salt dough
Then I will call each student one by one so that they can make their handprint
After the student, has created their handprint I will cut out their handprint from the
remaining dough
Then I will hand the student the cookie cutter so that they can place it in the middle of
their handprint to create the heart shape.
I will then hand the student the paintbrush and paint so they can paint their handprint
Then I will leave the handprint to dry.
Teaching Strategies
Sensory Engagement
The children will have firsthand experience with the salt dough as they learn that when its first
created it is soft but once it dries it becomes very hard.

First, I will have the children think how they want to decorate their treat bags
Then I will have them use the materials available to them on the table to create their bags

bag on the drying rack.
Teaching Strategies
Do-It Signals
I will use this strategy by giving the children positive statements so that they have a clearer idea
of what to do such as: tell me how you are going to decorate your treat bag.
Silence
I will use silence to avoid interrupting the children while they are designing their bag, this will
allow the children to have full control over what to do on their treat bags.

Group Learning Experience Planning Sheet
Programming Purpose
We as a class have been focusing a lot on letter and sound recognition.
Objective
Develop the skill to (11 .8) demonstrate knowledge of most letters of the alphabet in different
contexts as they see the letters on the board then on the rug (The Kindergarten Program, 2016,
p.310).
Materials:
Game: Alphabet marks the spot
Opening (Introduction)
Sing come to the carpet, sit down here.
We have been learning a lot about how letters look and how they sound. Today I want to play a
game so that you can show me how amazing you are at findings the letters.
Body (content)
1. Ask children to tell me the name of the letters I am pointing to in the board (Do-It
signals)
2. Ask if they are ready to play the game.
3. Acknowledge appropriate behaviour (ex: thank you for sitting so quietly while I explain
the rules of the game) (Behaviour reflection)
4. Begin the game
5. Ask the children to raise their hand if they want to participate
6. Then I will pick a child (if they are JK's I will say the name of the letter and ask them to
find it. If they are SK's I will make the sound of the letter and ask them to find the letter
and tell me the name of it) (Telling, Explaining, and Informing)
7. Repeat the steps until all children have had a turn
8. End lesson
Closing (Ending)
Today you showed me how much you know! I hope you enjoyed the game as much as I did.
Sing song: " Bella have a seat, have a seat, have a seat. Bella have a seat on your chair please."
(Tune: Shortinin' Bread). Sing song until all the children have taken a seat at their desks.
Transition
To facilitate the transition, the last line of the song sung above will be "... it's time for lunch".
