Activity: Environmental Sounds


Let's Get Started:
1. Prepare for a walking field trip, either around the neighborhood or to a local park.

2. As the children are walking during the field trip, ask them to identify any sounds that they hear during the field trip. Encourage the children to be alert to any sound they hear while on the field trip.

3. Sounds that might occur during a walking field trip might include: cars, trucks, buses, trains or planes in some areas, birds, children stepping, people talking/laughing, etc.

If using POCET, this Activity correlates to Developmental Guideline: LT 1 Identifies Sounds in the Environment and in Speech.
