Curriculum Areas/Learning Outcomes

Language Arts: Concept 1: Language and story can be a source of creativity and joy.  
Connection:  Your child will hear stories about kindness to inspire conversations about people they know and stories from their own life. They will have opportunities to create illustrations about these stories that stimulate and represent their creativity and joy.  
Concept 2:  Curiosity and wonder lead us to new discoveries about ourselves and the world around us. 
Connection:  When your child takes a close look at how kindness is highlighted in the stories they will begin to look around at their own world.
​
Social Studies:  Concept: Local actions have global consequences, and global actions have local consequences.  
Connection:  Your child will hear stories about people who did deeds with certain consequences as a goal.  They will see the ripple effect of kindness.

Curriculum Overview

You have completed two language arts focused units if you have been following along with the DW units over the months.  This unit will build on skills from the first two units.  This month your child will hear stories of kindness. Using these stories as a backdrop, your child will have opportunities to work on the DW literacy program inspired heavily by “The Roadmap to Literacy” by Langley and Militzer-Kopperl.  You’ll be building capacities for the future including those for spelling, reading, written communication, oral communication, and complex expression.  There will be many opportunities for reading, writing, and playing games as we build up your child’s skills and capacities for communication.  The curriculum will be covered in the first 15 days of the unit; the final week, the Flex Week, will invite your child to complete a project.  The Flex Week offers you the option to continue with the home learning routine of working through a morning lesson for the whole 20 days, or you can skip the final week completely.  You might also decide to bring the project in to your afternoons over the 15 days or, do four-day weeks of the curriculum by spreading it out into 20 days.  The Flex Week is meant to give you some flexibility and still trust that your child is covering curriculum.  This month’s project is a Kindness Quilt.  More details can be found in the lesson plans for Days 16-20.
