Me!
Promote self awareness with this early childhood lesson plan by Patti H.

Materials: Butcher paper, crayons or markers, the child's clothes and scissors.

Description: The child lays down on the butcher paper and the teacher traces the child's outline. The child then colors in the face, eyes, nose, ears, hair, what ever they are able to do on their own.

Fingerprints

Submitted by Karen

Fingerprint all of your children. Write the name of the corresponding child on their fingerprint. Place all of the fingerprints in one area with magnifying glasses. Tell the children to look closely and they will see that no one has the same print

Measure Me

Submitted by Lisa

Give the children a string and scissors. Have one child lie down and let them measure how tall he is and then cut the string. Latter the children can compare their strings and show them to their families.
