Welcome Pre K  5 Families!

Welcome to a new unit of study  " TRANSPORTATION ".In this unit children have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of a major part of New York City Life across the five boroughs. The full  diversity of our city is reflected in this unit through the examination of trains, boats, cars, airplanes, buses, speciality vehicles and more.  There are opportunities throughout the unit for us to tailor discussions and activities to reflect the children and  communities you serve.
Children begin the unit by considering the first focus question " What kinds of Transportation do I use and why? Children read about and May discuss what modes of transportation they use.
In week two, children begin to think about how different kinds of transportation are similar and different. This is an apportunity to compare and contrast the attributes of different modes of transportation. Children can explore the science of how vehicles move according to their interest levels. 
In third week of the unit, children consider the question, " Who operates the vehicles in my community". In this week children observe and explore vehicles, operates such as bus drivers, police officers, EMT and other comm7nity helpers.
