Procedures
a.
As the children take in all of the materials on the table I will introduce the activity. I
will ask them questions about their name and what sort of things do they enjoy drawing and
coloring.
b.
As the children begin the activity I will ask them to look for the vowels and consonants
in their name. If the children need assistance with witting their name I shall assist them until
they got it, they will underline or color the vowels and consonants a specific color to
distinguish them.
c.
Discussion/Questions will consist of distinguishing between the different letters of the
alphabet as well and the two types of letters there are. I will ask the children about what it is
they are drawing and why.
d.
Closure: When the children have completed their name tag I will ask the children to
hand me their activity so then they can move on to another center while I display their
nametags on a wall.
e.
Clean-up: The children will help put away all the materials in their designated areas
throw away any clippings and materials that belong in the trash. The children will then push
their chairs in before moving to another center.
