We finished our Science curriculum last week so we are onto the next topic, for the next few months we will be doing Community Helpers curriculum by Abeka.
I am doing this curriculum with my 7, 5 and 3 year old. This week we did police officers.
I used several different resources:
My 3 kids made a Community Workers folder to store all of their work in for this lesson along with all the up and coming Community Workers we will be learning about.
If you would like to create a Community Workers folder or your own using this front folder page you can print it off at on my shared folder. Please note that I made this page myself so please use it for learning purposes only.
We also did a cut and paste police offer craft which we added to our folder:
Plus we did a yummy activity. I taught my kids traffic signals as well, including green – go, yellow – slow down and red – stop.
Ingredients:
Chocolate graham crackers
icing / topping gel
Red, yellow, green Skittles (you can use M & M’s also)

The kids made their own traffic light snack, using the gel topping which comes in a tube (used for cake / cupcake topping designs) I had them squeeze out a small dot on their graham crackers and them place the Skittles on the gel – making their own traffic lights! My kids loved this activity and snack!
