Roads & Traffic Signs.......

2/26/2020

0 Comments

 
We have started our Transportation Unit this week. Children begin to understand their world when they walk down a road or path. They may recognize an area by seeing a special tree, traffic signs, stores, parks or familiar homes. By exploring landmarks and finding them on a map, children increase their awareness of symbols.
Roads make it easier for us to travel from place to place. Some may be curved while others can go on straight for miles. A road is a path that people or vehicles follow. Roads are usually made of dirt, gravel, concrete or brick. We always need to look both ways before we cross a street.
The kids were given paper, sand, markers, tubes and an inspiration photo to build a road! They explored how to create roads using their own ideas and creativity. Children learn that there are multiple ways to create art and that there are no right or wrongs ways.
Traffic signs give information to drivers and pedestrians. They are simple words, colors, symbols and numbers. Signs help us stay safe. We set out paper and markers and they made their own signs. We also made a traffic light and discussed what each color means. ​
