Journal Challenges KA & KB

 

This week marked our first of many "Journal Challenges" which will be presented to the Kiddos over the course of the year. A journal challenge is an activity focusing on different skills (i.e. fine motor, numeracy, alphabet awareness etc) on which we are working. The Kiddos have the choice to complete the challenge or not. Each day during explore time, the Kiddos can choose to work on the challenge or participate in other activities. However, if they choose to complete the journal challenge, then at the end of the week they are entitled to a small surprise. If they choose not to complete the challenge, then they are not. Not only do the challenges enhance specific skills, they are also a means to help the Kiddos begin to learn about the concept of delayed gratification. Keep an eye out in their portfolios for them.
