It is summer, and the insects are out of hibernation from this past winter. The grasshoppers are busy creating musical melodies at dusk on many summer nights. This is a grasshopper lesson plan for preschoolers. This lesson plan is full of fun activities about grasshoppers. The teacher will tell the class of an event (directly relating to him/her) that took place over the summer vacation. The teacher will then explain that she/he will be making an “All About Me” booklet about said event. Teacher will model making his/her own booklet to the class. Teacher will share finished booklet (text and illustrations) with class. This is a twist to the “What I did on my Summer Vacation” lesson for the first day of school. It is a great icebreaker in any class. Devote time during your last weeks of school to promote summer reading by inviting students to create brochures and flyers that suggest books and genres to explore during the summer months. Students first work in small groups to examine a variety of booklists, synthesizing the attributes of effective booklists. Next, students determine a focal point (genre, topic, etc.) for their booklists and gather appropriate information. Finally, students examine an example of persuasive writing, considering audience and purpose. They then write text for their booklist fliers or brochures, with audience and purpose in mind. |
