Kindergarten, Book Study, Week 36

This book study we used A Bear Called Paddington by Michael Bond copyright 1958. There are activities in Games with Books, but we were just reading and exploring things that were interesting to us. We are only half way through the book, but here is what we have done so far:

• Figured out how the ship would get from Peru to England
• Talked about the fact that people in England use different words for things
• What is marmalade?
• What is an inventor? (Charles Macintosh invented the raincoat/mackintosh)
• Vocabulary
• stowaway
• emigrate
• keen
• lift (elevator)
• mackintosh

You can make a notebook of the things you do, but K. isn't excited about doing that, so we just talk about these things for many days to reinforce them.
