example, when they pick up the Plastic vegetables from the
basket and also when they hold the paper bags that use the small
muscles of the fingers and hand. While, they also, develop grass
by using their large muscles such as leg when they walk.
Literacy

Children will learn read and write from this activity by

seeing coupons that written in it the name of vegetable
so, the child can learn the letters and read the words.
Moreover, they will gather new vocabulary by socialite

Understanding the World:

The children will reflect that when Mathematics:

they buy the food, they have to pay
for it by the money so, here the
child start understand to the real
life outside.
Creative Development:
The child in this activity can encourage his
creativity skills by beautifully organizing
the materials. For example, he may arrange
the basket as the pattern or according to the
colors.
Vegetable Grocery is the great way to support children in fundamental math
skills such as counting, number sense and one to one correspondence. They
develop counting when the child asks for three tomatoes the seller will be
count three tomatoes, and here also he applies one to one correspondence
when he grips three tomatoes that for number 3 that refer the child
understanding the concept of number 3.

What the teacher does: What the children do:

- I will sit with children in circle area and I welcome them. - The children will sit with me in circle area and greeting back.

questions.
Me: I will show you pictures, and I want you to tell me who is this if you
want to answer just raise your hand so I can see you.
Me: Who is this in person? Do you know where he is working? Do you know

person who helps people who have pain in their body.
Look at this picture!! This is a nurse who works with doctor in hospital, she
also, a good person who treats us.

Extension Ideas:

I was glad to be observed my children act as they in real situation, I saw some children like Saeed he pretends crying action because he has a stomach pain. Moreover, I saw the
Fatima who pretend nurses character act as she writes patient names in papers its look as scribble.
Before I implement this activity, I think my children will dont act as hospital employees I think they will just playing with materials but what I saw is completely change my mind
because they show me they really understand the role for each character we have been studied.
Furthermore, I observed the children develop their fine and motor skills when they use their hand and arm to take materials, social and emotion when they interact with other
children and they celebrate together, language skills when they learn and use new vocabulary from listen to another student.

I might in next lesson to involved different department in hospital role play area. For example, space for dentist and other space for optometrist also a space of veterinary.

4- Demonstrate number 2?
5- Demonstrate number1?
- I evaluate children by observing their skills through they are doing the activity and I will document their
work by recording video and take pictures to follow their learning progress.

Extension Ideas:

I was proud of my children because I observe them create their one movement. For example, Mariam was show number 2 by closing her eyes two times. Also, I saw Mohamed
represent number 5 by raising his hand five times, which make me believe that each child has her own movement. Furthermore, I was proud to saw my kids get a math concept such
as one to one corresponding by doing a number of action that has the same concept of number and counting skills.
In my view, I believe that movement and musical lesson is necessary for children because this is a success way to develop their fine and motor skills.

In next time if I had chance to implement this lesson I will make it better, interesting and motivation so, in next time I will provide a monkey animal dresses, doctor clothes and regular
clothing for mum and I will children group by group to preferment the five little monkeys song and singing it.

The instructions of game are:
1- I will play one instrument without letting you see it.
2- You have to identify the name of the instrument.
3- And I will ask you some questions related to an instrument, and you have to
answer my questions.
Me: are you ready?? But first I want all of you close his eye unit I allow for you. - Children close their eye to identify what the instrument I was

instrument played.
Me: What sound do you hear? - Evaluate the sound of instrument.
Which instrument do you think is being played? Why? - Answer the questions.
Is the sound high or low?
-

- I will play five instruments which drum, maraca, and xylophone.

- I will play other the instrument, and the process is repeated until all the
instruments have been played and identified.
- Each child has one instrument.
- I will give each child one instrument.
- Listen to direction instructions.

- I will explain for each child what we were going to do with this instrument.

Me: Each of child came and took one instrument and go back to your place to be read
for enjoyable activity.
- I will hang the poster of graphic scores on board, and I will explain it.
Me: look at graphics scores it includes three colores are red, yellow and blue each of
them means one of the instrument, for example, the blue refer drum, yellow refer
maracas, and red indicate xylophone. So, when you see the color that refers you the
instrument you have to play it for each block.

- I will allow them to star playing a instrument accorfing to graphic

scores.

and go back to their place.

thr pattern.

- They return instrument back and go back to their place.

Reflections:
- I will ask children questions to know what they have learned from
this lesson.
Me: how can tell me what the instrument we take today? What do you think which
instrument has a low sound? And which one has the highest sound?

- I evaluate children by observing their skills through they are doing

the activity and I will document their work by recording video and
take pictures to follow their learning progress. - The children will answer my question and evaluate the
instrument sound.
Extension Ideas:
I observe my children were happy to play with the instrument. Moreover, I saw my kids develop the VAK learning styles, for example, they will develop auditory skills by
hearing the music beat and instrument sound also, they support visual aspect by watching a music instrument. Furthermore, they improve by using kinesthetic their hand and
arm to beat the instrument and hold it.

I may increase the range of instruments used in this activity. Also, I may for next lesson let children to create their own pattern.
