Transportation: Travel by Air

Group time is a focused, teacher-directed learning experience each day at LAP. It includes several different activities; music, literature, language, listening, sharing of thoughts and ideas, etc.















This week, as we discussed modes of travel, we all shared what we would pack in a suitcase if we were traveling on a big trip far away from home. The answers were thoughtful and practical and made for a serious packing list.

We talked about planes, hot air balloons, and rocket ships. Next week we move onto travel via the waterways.







We also spent some time each day for the All About Me bucket. Our three friends who shared this week continued to do a great job of speaking in front of the group and commanding the attention of their classmates. The audience was very attentive and supportive of everyone who shared.



"Peanut" the Sugar Bear came to our class for a visit!
