Activity 1: Mathematics: Patterning
Materials: 2 different colors of legos (for eg; red & blue) or shape cutout (for eg; circle and triangle)
Vocabulary: patterning, sequencing, same over and over again, alternate, repeat
Beginning: Hand out the materials and tell your child that today we will be making patterns. You may start forming an alternation pattern (red lego – blue lego - red lego – blue lego …) or (circle – triangle - circle – triangle …)
Middle: You may ask your child to continue the pattern you made. You also may encourage him/her to make their own pattern.
End: Let him/her describe the pattern that he/she did it. Give 3 minutes warning.
Duration: 10 - 15 minutes
Extension: You may add another color or shape to make a complex pattern. For example: (red-blue-yellow- red-blue-yellow ...) or (circle-triangle-square- circle-triangle-square …) or (red-red-blue-red-red-blue …)
Activity 2: Science: Mixing paint
Materials: Paint (any three colors) or food color ( If you do not have paint), paint brush, bowl, paper
Vocabulary: mix, paint, experiment, observe, result, up, down, wavy
Beginning: Give two paint colors with a bowl and a paint brush to your child. Ask him/her to observe and describe his/her experiment.
Middle: Once two colors are mixed. You may ask, “I wonder what will happen if we add one more color.” Encourage their ideas.
End: Give 3 minutes warning. Let your child describe the change in the experiment. Give him/her paper to paint.
Duration: 15 minutes
Extension: Your child could experiment with different shades like light blue, dark blue, light green, dark green etc.
