Personally, Malaysia holds a very special place in my heart. Many of the themes are made from my own experiences as a world traveler. Each imaginative travel theme brings an open-ended, fun, exciting and unique adventure from that particular country and area of the world. We discuss what children around the world do, where they live, how they dress and the types of food they eat. I introduce imaginary travel experiences through: simplified mini lessons, simple maps and globes, and a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books.
Various themes also include embedded educational concepts such as: sequencing, one-to-one correspondence, literacy and enriched vocabulary.Ĭhildren love the idea of traveling and are very curious about other children and the world around them. The World Adventure themes offer development of social skills, problem solving, higher order thinking, as well as fine and gross motor skills. As needed with all themes, the World Adventures Dramatic Play Series is open-ended (without specific requirements) and playfully (loosely) based, without requiring geographical and historical facts. As a teacher, you will be able to know if your class is ready for themes and concepts branching beyond their immediate world view.īegin by introducing the concepts such as near/far, up/down, ways we travel, and children around the world. Introducing the World Adventures concepts in an age appropriate environment and format, provides a small glimpse into the beautiful diversity of life beyond their personal world. During our school year of World Adventures, we "travel" to different countries and experience an imaginary, playful theme, based off something special from each one.
