Big, Big Dreams

My Big, Big Dream
What’s my big, big dream? What’s your big, big dream? We love to dream big, don’t we all? Maybe we would like to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer, or a teacher? Whatever we may choose to be, why do we do what we do? The children learn that community heroes do what they do to help others.

Learning Process
First, we looked through a slideshow of photos of the many different types of professions in the world. Then, we also watched various videos and go on exciting field trips together to have a much deeper insight. We had opportunities to get hands-on experiences too. Later, the children were encouraged to decide on a community hero they would like to be in the future and they expressed the desire into their masterpieces.

Reflection
Through these exposures, the children learn:
a. To dream big, big dreams.
b. To select and decide for their future.
c. That it’s not about us, it’s always about others.
