I absolutely love your approach to using “Welcome to Alien School” with the infants! Asking them to predict the story engages their curiosity right from the start. Discussing their favorite parts and brainstorming what Alien School might be like is a wonderful way to encourage their creativity and critical thinking. Role-playing the activities sounds like a fantastic way for them to bring their ideas to life. Integrating Visual Arts by having them create their own aliens and describe their characters is a brilliant idea that ties in well with the storytelling. Linking the topic with music through “Zoom, Zoom, Zoom” is a fun and memorable way to reinforce the rhyming words and add an extra layer of engagement. Your approach seems both engaging and educational—great job!
