Welcome to the World of Environmental Print!

🌍 Introduction: A Treasure Hunt for Words

Good morning, children! Today, we’re going on a special adventure right here in our classroom! We are going to discover something that is all around us, but often goes unnoticed. Can anyone guess what it might be?

That’s right! Words! But not just any words – we’re going to explore environmental print. This means all the signs, labels, logos, and words we see in our everyday lives.

📚 Story Time: "The Magic Signs"

Before we start our treasure hunt, let’s gather around for a story.

📖 Read Aloud

Once upon a time in a bustling little town, there were magical signs everywhere! There were signs for shops, signs for parks, and signs that told the animals where to go. One day, a curious little fox named Felix decided to learn all about these magical signs. He discovered that each sign had a special message, helping everyone know where to find yummy food, fun games, and even safe places to cross the road!

With his new knowledge, Felix began to read all the signs he saw during his adventures. He could tell the other animals where to find the juiciest berries and the best play areas, all because he understood the magic of words in his world!

✨ Discussion

Now that we have heard Felix’s adventure, let’s talk about the signs and words we see every day. Can anyone tell me a sign or a word they see outside?

🕵️‍♀️ Activity: Our Environmental Print Treasure Hunt!

Now it’s your turn to be like Felix! We're going to embark on a Treasure Hunt around the classroom.

📝 Instructions:

  1. Look Around: I want you to look closely around our classroom. Can you spot any words or signs?
  2. Draw or Write: Pick one sign or word you find and either draw it or write it down on your special treasure map (piece of paper).
  3. Share: Once you’ve found your treasure, come back and share what you discovered with the group!

🎉 Wrap-Up

After our treasure hunt, we’ll gather back on the carpet to share all our treasures! Remember, understanding environmental print helps us know our world better, just like Felix!

Let’s get ready to discover the magic of words all around us. Happy hunting, explorers! 🕵️‍♂️✨
