Thursday
Show the children a daisy or buttercup blossom. Talk about the flower, the stem, the leaves, the root; the part that the rain, the sunshine, and the earth have in making the plant grow.
Friday
Play, as a game, the growth of the daisy. One child represent the sun, another the rain, others daisy leaves, stems, roots, blossoms. The children will work out their own game, with a little helpful suggestion.
THIRD WEEK
Monday
Place a number of small objects upon a desk or table. Have the children see how many of the objects they can name, after they have had a minute to observe the objects, and then these are hidden.
Tuesday
Conversation on Sight:
How do we see objects? Why do we need to take the best possible care of our eyes? What do we call a person who cannot see? How far can you see? Can you see a grain of sand? Can you see at night? What animal can see at night?
