The dentist is coming and one puppet is happy/excited and the other puppet is scared. Introduce Words for this week together: Same/ Different. Song: I Have Feelings (track 13)?Brain Builder: Play?the Echo, Echo! Game.Tuesday 12/1Story & Discussion: Use the picture on the poster to share a visual of the story that you are discussing with students. Today's story is about?Marisa and Shontal. The two girls are doing the same activity together but are showing different feelings about what is happening. Wednesday 12/2Skill Building Activity #1:?Identifying same or different. Alternative activity that could help for participation for student who struggle with language. Play the Feelings matching game. This time match up the boy and girl that are showing the same feeling. Use the feelings we have learned about: happy, sad, surprised, scared and angry. This time the total cards would be 10. Flip over all the feelings cards and their match then have the students take turns pointing to 2 cards for you to flip over. When you flip the cards over ask the students are they the same feeling or different. When they are different ask students the question so that it is a “yes/no”- “are these cards the same – no” encourage students to say no or shake their heads no OR when the cards are different you could ask “are the cards different – yes” encourage students to say yes or shake their heads yes. You could have students tell you what two different feelings are on the cards that got flipped. Tell the students when we find a match you will hold them up and we should make the feeling we see with our face so that all our faces show the same feeling. Thursday 12/3Skill Building Activity #2:?Use Polly spots or tape markers to make 2 different lines to help students keep socially distanced. Have drawn pictures or your Feelings cards to show students when you are designating each line. Give students the scenarios when asking how they would feel. For students/classrooms where the movement around the room would be to much you can do it from seats by asking the same scenarios and having kids stand up or sit down. Ex: Scenario 1- Someone asks you to hold a snake. If you would feel scared stand up if you would feel happy stay sitting.
