We know that children benefit from daily support for their minds, their hearts, and their bodies. Your child\u2019s teacher will be developing learning experiences that support children\u2019s cognitive, social-emotional, and physical development. Educators may use a Mind\/Heart\/Body framework to plan for learning at home.<\/p>\n

Sample Day for a Kindergarten Student<\/h2>\n

In Kindergarten, we teach the whole<\/em> child. Every day, we engage their minds, their hearts and their bodies. Even though we\u2019re learning together from a distance (for now), this is still our framework.
\nYou might notice that some prompts inspire learning for your child\u2019s heart, mind, and<\/em><\/strong><\/span> body! This is something that we notice as well, and it\u2019s exciting to see children making connections this way.<\/p>\n

Approximately 20 minutes daily for each component – not necessarily consecutively.<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Learning Activity:<\/strong>
\nHelp fold laundry with a family member. Think of ways the laundry could be sorted, and talk about which group has more, the same or less. Can you sort items a different way?<\/td>\n		Learning Activity:<\/strong>
\nWatch Todd Parr read his story The Feel Good Book<\/a>. Talk with your child about what makes them feel good. Invite them to draw or write about this. Share some things that make you feel good. Try to help each other feel good at least one time each day!<\/td>\n		Learning Activity:<\/strong>
\nWatch Dr. Jean\u2019s Banana Dance<\/a>. Try out the actions and sing along! Can you teach the song to another family member? What other foods (and actions) could you add to the song?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
What Children are Learning:<\/strong><\/em>
\nSorting is an important mathematical concept. Students are discovering ways things are the same and different.\u00a0<\/em>Determining which group has more or less is another mathematical concept about quantity.<\/em><\/td>\n		What Children are Learning:<\/strong><\/em>
\nIdentifying feelings is important for children as they grow. When they can identify their feelings they can begin to learn how to manage their feelings (e.g., take a deep breath when they feel angry or frustrated).\u00a0<\/em>Talking, drawing and writing about their feelings supports their literacy learning.<\/em><\/td>\n		What Children are Learning:<\/strong><\/em>
\nAction songs like this support learning in many ways, including oral expression, vocabulary, motor skills and healthy living.<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
