Description
Tired of the same teaching themes and you want a change? After coming across the book A House is a House for Me by Mary Ann Hoberman, (which I fell in love with), I decided to do a unit on Homes (and Family) in lieu of The Gingerbread Man in December. The potential of the use of a “Home” theme is incredible and limitless and still reinforces remediation skills that some children still need. This is an important concept to me because of my own experiences of teaching so far away from family. A high degree of mobility is demanded of our students. Relocation is a reality that a significant number of these dependents are separated from at least one parent due to overseas deployment. Our children move around the world, acclimating themselves to new cultures, new friends, new homes and new surroundings. Therefore a home is such a precious concept.
