Twin Friends
Our curriculum for four-year-olds focuses on their relationship with their environment; it changes each year. One year, a class was especially interested in the physical characteristics of their bodies, which led to a yearlong project about what makes us alike and different. At the end of the year, the children and the teachers decided they wanted to make life-size dolls.
Goals:
To explore the similarities and differences between us.
To develop gross and fine motor skills, observation skills, sensory and kinesthetic exploration.
