| Activity: There's No Place Like Home |
 |
- Walk around your
neighborhood and look at what makes it unique. Point out how it is
similar to other places you have been and how it is different. Talk
about what animals and plants live in your neighborhood. Look at the
buildings and discuss their uses. Are there features designed to meet
weather conditions, such as window shutters or sun rooms? Do the
shapes of some buildings tell us how they were used in the past or how
they are used now?
- If you live near a park, a lake, a river, a stream or a creek, take your children there and spend time talking about its uses. If you live near an historical site, visit it and talk about what happened there and why it's important. Look for other points of interest in your town and learn more about them.
