This is one of my favorite units for 1st grade! I bring in the penguin puppet. His name is P. Revere Penguin, and he teaches the kids good work habits and study skills. For the first lesson, I introduce the penguin and share some interesting facts about penguins. Then the penguin takes over- the kids love it! He talks to them, and there's a song that plays. For this lesson, we discuss the importance of penguins working quietly- with their job of collecting food. We connect this back to us, and discuss what our jobs are at school and why it's important to work quietly. Ask your 1st grader about P. Revere Penguin :) He will be back next time to discuss another important work habit. Stay tuned!
