Playing the game of life

Social Studies

• The 4-5 year old student has learned about different career choices by understanding the various occupations they can choose in the game.
• They have developed an understanding of money and basic financial concepts by using play money and making decisions on how to spend it in the game.
• They have learned about responsibility and decision-making by making choices related to family, career, and finances in the game.
• They have gained an understanding of community and family dynamics as they interact with the game's events and make choices that affect their "family" in the game.

Encourage the 4-5 year old's continued development by discussing the concepts learned in the game during everyday activities. Engage them in conversations about different occupations, financial decision-making, and the importance of family and community. Use real-life examples and opportunities to reinforce these concepts.
