preposition: review of "inside"

Who is inside the sleeping bag?

To review the preposition "inside" we used the sleeping bag today.

Language Goals
Expressive Language: preposition "inside" conjunction "and"
Receptive Language: Who/What questions

To start everyone made a large circle on the carpet area. I selected one student to go in the hall with my aide. Then I put one student inside the sleeping bag, all the way! Nothing can be showing. Call the student in the hall back in the classroom to try to guess who is inside the sleeping bag.

T: Who is inside the sleeping bag?
S: Hamoody is inside the sleeping bag!
(the student who was inside the sleeping bag now goes in the hallway.)
Once everyone has had a turn inside the sleeping bag, I hid camping items inside the sleeping bag. Sometimes I hid one item or sometimes I hid two items (hoping to get the "and" conjunction!)

T: What is inside the sleeping bag?
S: The tent and the pots are inside the sleeping bag.

CENTERS
Sleeping bags-the kiddos made sleeping bags from construction paper and yarn. I cut large strips of white construction paper and folded the bottom up about 3//4 of the way to the top.  Then I punched holes along the edges and tied a string for the kiddos to lace. Once the kiddos laced the sleeping bag, they got to decorate it however they wanted. I also took pictures of the kiddos laying down on the ground and let them cut out the pictures to put inside the  sleeping bag. Super cute!

here is the finished product minus the picture of the kiddos.
