I took the two finished pages from each child and bound them together with the rest of the class’s to make an “ALL ABOUT US BOOK!” We pulled a name each day from our LET’S TAKE TURNS BOX and that person got to take the book home for one night to share with his/her family. I typed and ran off the following questions for each child to answer. Then we placed a piece of double stick tape to the back of their picture and they taped their picture anywhere they wanted onto their decorated construction paper. Each child decorated a piece of construction paper in whatever manner they wished….using bingo daubers/markers/crayons/stamps & stamp I asked each family to send in a picture of their child. We keep it out all year and it is well used. The children love, as do the parents, looking through the book. We then laminate these pages and put a ring on it to create a class book.
When we begin our school year we send home a piece of construction paper with “All about_.” The children work at home with their parents creating a page allĪbout themselves, it usually comes back with photos, cut pictures from magazines, box tops, labels, etc. Children then take turns taking suitcase home and bringing their favorite objects to share. Make a chart of caring for personal needs:Ĭount how many children can accomplish each task, and record.ĭiscuss likes and dislikes for kinds of food, activities, toys, places.īring in a small suitcase filled with favorite things from home to share with class, such as a postcard of a trip, a china animal, a sweater. Together count eyes, noses, feet, toes, and so on.ĭiscuss different skills and abilities. Now have students look for things that are special about each of them, such as hair, eye color, nose shape, family, address, and name. Point out that, despite similarities, everyone is special. Will you count them with me?Īsk the children to look at one another and tell you what is the same about all of them. I traced their little feet and the children colored them.Ĭaption: I have 2 little feet and on my feet I have 10 little toes. Caption: “I have two hands and on my hands I have 10 fingers.
The children made handprints with tempera paint. Examine how each child’s fingerprint is special. They can turn them into crazy critters with felt pens by drawing eyes, whiskers, legs.
