This week for Large Group, we continued to work on recognizing and using our names and our classmate's names. We also worked on saying the "B" sound in words and phrases and answering yes/no and "wh" questions.
We sang the song Baby Blowing Bubbles. We learned some actions to do with our hands while we sing the song.
We played the game Who Took the Baby From the Baby Bed? Teacher Heidi told us that when she came to school today, she noticed that someone had taken her baby from the baby bed. We played a game where we closed our eyes and teacher Heidi hid the baby behind one of us and when we opened our eyes, we guessed who took the baby. We tapped our knees to the beat while we chanted...
"Who took the baby from the baby bed?"
We took turns guess who we thought was hiding the baby. If we couldn't say the name of our classmate or if we forgot, we used our picture board with our class pictures on it and pointed to the person we thought might have the baby. We then tapped our knees to the beat while we chanted...
"Heidi took the baby from the baby bed."
If we had the baby, we would say "Yes, I have the baby." If we didn't have the baby, we would say "No, I don't have the baby." We had a lot of fun guessing who had the baby and at the end of the activity, we finally returned the baby to her bed so she could take her nap.
You can work on asking and answering questions at home by playing the game or a variation of it with your child. You can also work on answering "wh" and "yes/no" questions by asking your child questions about things they see while on walks, at the store or in pictures when reading books.
