FIRST PLACEMENT
SENSORY BAGS ACTIVITY PLAN
The
children were centered around the table, in which the Ziploc bags with the
gel, the shaving cream, the glitter and the paint inside were already located so that the children can begin to touch them.
The children touched the bags
with gel and shaving cream, put them close to their faces and felt the textures. They appeared to understand the concepts of
sensations. During this experience, the children learned the liquid sensation
of the gel and the texture of the shaving cream, apart from seeing through the
bag the different figures that were inside. They develop different skills such as
- Sensory Development
- Fine Motor Skills
- Explore and develop their creativity and imagination
- Self-control
There were things that could've been added to make the activity more suitable, but as my first activity I was really proud!

SECOND PLACEMENT
JUMBO BLOCK PLAY ACTIVITY PLAN
The children in the class have been showing a growing interest in building towers with different objects. As this helps the children increase their fine motor skills, gross motor skills and cognitive development, I decided to implement a block play activity. Since I wanted to make it more appealing, I decided to bring with me "jumbo blocks" made from different sizes of boxes; in this way, the children were able to build up different things while reinforcing the concepts of different sizes.
The children engaged in the block play activity. They showed interest in discovering different ways of positioning the
blocks and tried to make a big tower. They also answered questions like, what
do you see on the blocks? Or, do you want to build a tower? they counted 1 and
2, identified the different sizes big or small, and imitated their peers during
the activity, they helped each other and tried different things.They develop different skills such as
- Gross Motor Skills
- Creativity and Imagination
- Social and Collaboration Skills
- Cognitive skills
- Spatial awareness

SECOND PLACEMENT
The children in the class have been showing a growing interest in balls and sorting. As learning numbers is important, I decided to implement a matching number activity with lions included to catch the children's attention. This while reinforcing the concepts counting.
The children engaged in the mathematical activity of matching numbers 1 and 2 in the lions with the balls 1 and 2. They showed interest in discovering that the balls could go inside the lion's mouth and in being able to transport the balls from one side to another, They also answered questions and imitated the sound of the lion, they counted 1 and 2 and imitated their peers during the activity, they helped each other and tried different things such as trying to put two balls in at the same time or trying to throw them from a distance. They develop different skills such as
- Number identification and counting
- One-to-one correspondence between a
- number and its quantity
- Recognition of number patterns
- Development of hand-eye coordination
- fine motor skills by manipulating the activity pieces
