Once the program ends
Talk, talk, talk! By talking about
a program, you help children continue to explore and
make sense of what they saw.
- Use new words from the show and discuss new concepts.
- Have your group summarize what the program was about. What was the main idea or message? What parts were most important?
- Ask children to share what they liked best – and why.
- Answer any questions they still have about the program. If you aren't sure, look for answers on the Internet or take a trip to the library together.
Do, do, do! Show your children how
to turn on the power of television by connecting the
program to their daily lives.
- Start a related project or investigation. (It's easy if you watched a science program – try one of their experiments at home. How do your results compare?)
- Take a fieldtrip to a related place. Visit the library, a museum, a fire station, a park.
- Read a related book. Write a song or play a game. Create a piece of art.
- Make a snack or dessert, and talk about the show as you work.
