Who are the people in our neighborhood?

This week we will be talking about the different places in the neighborhood. At the closing of each day, we will be watching some clips of the classic Sesame Street song, Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood. We will come back and revisit these clips (and more) in a few more weeks when we really focus on jobs and community helpers. This week, we are viewing these clips while talking about the different places that are in our neighborhood that we frequent (grocery store, school, doctor, etc.).



On Monday, we will read Bear at Work, about a bear who is a mail carrier and travels throughout his neighborhood.


On Tuesday, we will watch the e-book, Bebe Goes Shopping and talk about how a grocery store is in a neighborhood. We will read and talk about visiting the doctor's office in our neighborhood on Wednesday. The above clip covers both a grocer and a doctor.


On Thursday, we will talk about how a school is a part of a neighborhood. The above clip is about how a teacher is a person in the neighborhood.


On Friday, we will sing 'Pat-a-Cake', read A Cake for Me, and talk about how a bakery is in a neighborhood. One of the characters in the above clip is a baker.
