I choose the hands-on classroom themed activities for the activity set on where do you live?
To begin the lesson, I would show the children pictures of a variety of different homes and engage them in discussion about how the houses are different. I would be sure to incorporate the new vocabulary throughout this discussion. I would then ask the children to share what their houses look like. I would ask them how their houses are similar or different from the pictures of the houses. I would then engage the children in creating their homes using clay. I would then engage the children in painting their clay to look like their house.
As an extension activity, I would discuss with the children the facilities in the local area. I would also bring the children on a walk around the local area and would engage the children in creating the facilities in our local area in small.
