It Only Looks Like Playing
As summer quickly approaches you will soon be faced with what to do with your children all day. One thing that you will want to do is to keep
the loss of learning from preschool and Head Start to a minimum. Having activities at home that can help your child continue to learn is a
great way to avoid learning loss, while reading to your child and visiting your local library will actually help to spur learning gain!
Unlike older children, preschool age children are unable to learn through abstract or passive methods. Young children learn best by direct
hands-on experience. They need to actively explore and manipulate materials and toys; discovering answers, properties, relationships, skills and
concepts for themselves. “ Play is the work of childhood”. It is a child’s very personal way of interacting with their world and learning to master
the possibilities in it. Having fun is much more than meets the eye; it’s the very serious endeavor of starting a life-long path of learning, and
having a little fun along the way!
Here are a few activities that look like play but it meets an academic goal:
• Block building - Mathematical goals (spatial concepts, problem solving, balance and weights, cooperation)
• Stringing beads - Mathematical goals (correspondence counting, patterns, sequencing); Literacy goals (visual motor coordination, left to right
concepts)
• Finger plays and rhymes - Literacy goals (auditory discrimination, phonetic skills, auditory memory, concept comprehension, visual motor
coordination, vocabulary development)
• Concentration game - Literacy goals (visual discrimination, symbolic decoding, visual memory, concept development; Mathematical goals
(matching and classification)
• Drawing and painting - Literacy goals (symbolic representation, visual memory, visual motor coordination, creative expression)
