This morning, Danny and I reviewed the calendar and completed our activity from yesterday, in which Danny had to name the next day after three days had been provided. Next, we began talking about economics, at a simple level. We watched the Brain Pop Jr. about goods and services. We saw that goods are things like cars, computers, clothes, or foods such as vegetables. Then we learned that a service is work someone does for someone else such as a teacher, dentist, or bus driver. We were introduced to the terms: consumer (one who buys goods or services) and producer (one who makes or offers goods or services). We discussed the easy quiz together. We began looking at our Florida Studies Weekly packet about consumers and producers. This started with a review of wants and needs and then we discussed goods and services. We stopped there and expanded further on goods and services with two activities. In the first, Danny color coded statements as to if they are a good or a service. These included things like: buying a hat, getting a checkup, and buying shoes. Danny did a nice job discriminating these items! For our second activity, we watched a digital telling of the story, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, by Laura Numeroff. In this cute story, a little hungry mouse shows up at a doorstep and one may want to give him a cookie. The story then weaves through a tale of "what ifs" based on giving him the cookie (telling all the things he may want next). We then listed goods (including cookie, milk, and crayons) and services (including haircut, sweeping the floor, and washing the floor) that we heard in the story. Danny wrote on the list by copying and worked to sound out the starting letters of each word.
