Bedtime Games
9-9-00A bedtime game that could be adapted to your classroom is flashlight tag. We turn out all the lights in the house and play flashlight hide and seek. Cover the windows and turn out the lights in your classroom and have fun!
9-9-00Graphing is an easy way to tie in math to "bedtime." Get out your trusty old pocket chart and make headings for what the kids do first to get ready for bed after their bath such as "brush teeth" "brush your hair" "get on pajamas" and so on. Just 3-4 different ones. Write (or have children write) their names on a small sentence strip or index card and have them put their name under what they do first. Which one has the most? Which one has the least?
9-9-00The Napping House by Audrey and Don Wood is an awesome book for a unit such as this. If you are not familiar with this book or their other books they are authors worth checking out! Frank Shaffer Publications puts out "Literature Notes" for various stories with activities to do. Pick up this one at your local teacher store. If you don't have access to this here are something you can do. Copy the pictures out of clip art or cut out of magazines and do story sequencing. Talk about what comes first, second and so on as you read. As you do put the pictures in order from bottom to top in your pocket chart. Have the children take turns retelling the story using your sequenced pictures.
