Planned activities for the day:
- Activities from yesterday
Highlights of the day:
Plays independently
- Bugged me to get out of bed to play with his play dough
- He mostly played by himself
- Perhaps having the toys and activities laid out nicely on the table is good for both of us
- When I was preparing lunch, he looked through the kitchen cabinet and declared that he wanted to cook
- Played "pouring" of liquids between two cups (water in one, and milk in the other -- then of course, he did not want to drink it); made a mess, by the way
Life skills
- Had the chance to wear his slippers twice today -- and he wore them correctly both times: As he was about to wear the left pair to his right foot (or vice versa), he stopped himself and put on the correct one instead
Ideas for next lessons:
- Continue with having activities prepared and presented nicely
- CLEAN UP!
- DIY easel before I buy one
- More "station", or transportation activities (he requested it, but we do it outside)
- Go out tomorrow, as promised
More reflections:
It just dawned on me that Mateo was the one to say "'station" when I asked him what we're going to do next time. This after his daddy asked him what we did today. He realized that our activities were mostly transportation-related! Maybe it's not a big thing, but I'm just amazed that he noticed it.
