Transportation
We learned the word "transportation". We talked about that the word transport means to carry and transportation is the different ways we carry ourselves to different places.
We learned the many different kinds of transportation (car, plane, bus, boat, train, bike, truck, walking, skateboards, helicopters, etc.). We then made a graph on the board of the most popular kind. Each of the children voted on their favorite form of transporation, helicopter won. We made a bar graph of our results.
We completed a dot-to-dot of a helicopter and then painted a picture of the different types of transportation.
Of course, we also sang "The Wheels on the Bus" and pretended to be a helicopter to some classical music (they were sure dizzy when they landed).
