People In Our Neighbourhood

Greetings.. and Welcome to my Blog!

The video brought back fond memories to me... I hope you find it enjoyable also!

Who Are the People In Your Neighbourhood?



Let's watch as we answer the question - Who Are the People in Your Neighbourhood?  Can you think of anyone else?.. Use the clues below to help you - 
                                 
     



I intend to use this Blog as a tool for a Kindergarten Social Studies Class.  We will look at this video of "People In Your Neighbourhood" and learn the song.  Then we'll use the pictures afterwards to think of other people and add them to the song.  Afterwards, I'll give them an Art activity to draw and colour a person in their neighbourhood.

I think this activity will assist my lesson because children at that age tend to learn better when they have something like a song or poem to help them remember the information.  I think they will enjoy learning that song especially because they can add new people to it - so the song can be different every time!  Tell me what you think!



Take this survey and tell me what you want to be when you grow up!

    1. Hi Onisher - Thanks for your comments... I agree - I was really hoping to find a survey of that nature.. but I was also trying to find one that a Kindergarten child could do also and I didn't have any luck with that. I think in the future I will have to create one myself and replace it - A work in progress! Thanks for the Feedback!
