Our week: KG 1, week 20
Dates: to · Try one activity on a day that suits you. Repeat or pause any part.
Reading & talking
Do: Three-picture story. After a story, draw the beginning, the middle and the end in three boxes. Your child tells the story using the pictures: 'First… next… last…'
You need: Paper, crayons
Talk: Who was in the story? Where did it happen?
We noticed:
Game (optional): Story Steps
Writing & pencil control
Do: Try the sign in its place. Place the sign where an adult agrees it will help. Ask someone at home what they think it means. Read it together if needed. Let your child add a word or clearer picture if useful, keeping the original writing visible.
You need: The sign and a safe low display space
Talk: Where will the reader need this message?
We noticed:
Game (optional): Trace It
Numbers & shapes
Do: Tallest tower. On the floor, make a low tower with the boxes and cups. Try flat surfaces together and notice what stays steady. Compare with a ball placed beside the tower. Keep the stack below your child's shoulder height.
You need: Small empty cardboard boxes and unbreakable cups
Talk: Which shape has flat faces?
We noticed:
Game (optional): Shape Detective
Science & our world
Do: Land, water and air. Draw a road, railway, water and sky. Add a bus, train, boat and aeroplane in suitable places. Explain that trains travel on rails, boats travel on water and aeroplanes fly through air. Talk about where a rickshaw usually travels.
You need: Paper and crayons
Talk: Which picture needs rails?

Game (optional): Helper Heroes
Thinking & feelings
Do: Tell what helped. Draw or describe the step your child chose. Ask whether watching, company or trying helped. They may choose the same step another day, a different step or a pause. Explain that feeling unsure does not mean they did anything wrong.
You need: Paper and crayons
Talk: Would you like me beside you?
We noticed:
Game (optional): Feelings Friends
Moving & making
Do: A different view. Turn the cup so a different side faces your child. Ask what changed in the view. Make a second small drawing or point out the difference together. Keep both versions; each can record something noticed from its own position.
You need: The same cup and drawing materials
Talk: What looks different after we turn the cup?
