The Junior Kindergartens have been introduced to the many different people who help in the community. In particular, they have enjoyed learning about pilots. They have made a big aeroplane in our role-play area and love the idea of pretend traveling everyday with their peers.
In order to bring more real life knowledge to this topic, and to extend their experiences, the children visited Provo Air Center to explore aeroplanes and the job of pilots in more detail. The children were all interested in the pilot’s job and they each got the opportunity to sit in their seat and look at the cockpit. Take a look at our photos below.
The trip has certainly enriched the language and scenarios played out by the children in our role-play area. Since the visit, they are incorporating their new knowledge and talking more about their travel experiences.
