A C A D E M I C S : 4K Expedition
The 4K expedition was "Communities". The children learned about different community helpers and the places where they work. Also, we learned that our school and families can be a community just in a different way.
Celebration of Learning
In addition to their “Communities” expedition, the 4K engaged in a literature study that focused on different versions of the fairytale, The Gingerbread Man. The children learned about basic story elements, retelling a story through play, and different forms of writing.
Guiding Questions for "Communities"
- What is a community?
- What do members of a community do to support each other?
