Community Workers and Their Tools

The document describes a kindergarten lesson about community workers and the tools they use. The lesson begins with a KWL chart activity to engage students in discussing what they know and want to learn about community workers. Students are then split into groups and each given an object used by a community worker to discuss. A PowerPoint presentation is then used to go over each tool and the corresponding community worker. The lesson wraps up by having students share what they learned, which is added to the KWL chart. The goal is for students to be able to identify tools and understand how community workers use them.

Content and Standards:


California Common Core: Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse
partners about kindergarten topics and texts with peers and adults in small and larger
groups
California Common Core: Describe familiar people, places, things, and events and, with
prompting and support, provide additional detail
Prerequisites:
Students are familiar with community workers and how they help our community.
Instructional Objective:
Students will be able to identify objects that community workers use in order to help our
community.
Instructional Procedures:
BEFORE:
Begin by having chart paper out in order to do a KWL chart with students. Ask students
what they know about community helpers. Write these under the K part of the chart.
Ask students what they want to learn about community workers. Write these under the
W part of the chart. Explain that when we are finished we will fill in the last part of the
chart with what we learned.
DURING:
Review who our community workers are. Explain that each table has a different object
on it. Explain that at their tables students will talk about the objects found at their tables.
Explain that these objects are used by community workers. Explain that students will
talk about which community worker might use the tool at their table and what they might
use the tool for. Allow students to explore for little bit and then bring them back to the
rug. Explain that we will be looking at a PowerPoint in order to talk about the different
objects. Show a PowerPoint with a picture of a tool. Ask students who had this object at
their table which community worker they thought used this object and what they used it
for. Ask the other students if they agree or disagree. On the next slide should show
students the correct answer. Continue doing this with all the tools.
AFTER:
Ask students what they have learned. Write their answers under the L part of the chart.
Explain that we will be doing a writing about students being a community worker for a
day soon and that they can use what they learned today in their writing.
