Bagi saya teman jiran boleh diselitkan di dalam tema sekolah, rumah, keluarga dan kawan. Maklumlah murid kita ni bukannya kenal sangat dengan jiran sebelah rumah. Apatah lagi kalau mereka tinggal di bandar. Hehe...saya sendiri pun tidak berapa kenal nama jiran. Rupa mereka saya ingatlah. Apa lagi nak ajar anak sendiri sebab mereka sering berkurung di dalam rumah. Dalam kehidupan moden sekarang ini, ibu bapa menjadi sangat berhati-hati. Anak-anak menjadi seperti anak burung merpati. Terkurung di dalam sangkar. Mungkin kalau murid di kampung, tema ini boleh diajar dengan lebih mudah tapi lebih difokuskan dalam tema keluarga kerana di kampung biasanya jiran murid kita adalah terdiri dari saudara mara mereka sendiri. Oleh itu kesimpulan yang mudah ialah tema jiran boleh diselitkan dalam tema yang telah saya nyatakan sebelum ini... ia sukar untuk diajar dalam secara tersendiri... ia adalah tema yang disepadukan supaya mudah murid-murid faham konteks yang dimaksudkan dengan "JIRAN".
Sebagai membantu setakat yang saya mampu di petang ini, saya dapati terlalu sedikit info berkaitan tema jiran. Hanya info di bawah yang saya temui untuk menyelesaikan masalah berkaitan.
Neighborhood Arts, Crafts and Activities
Picture of the Neighborhood
I give the children black paper. They use colored chalk or crayons and draw a picture of a neighborhood at night. Use foil stars for the sky. Attach all of the pieces of black paper together on a bulletin board. It looks just like a real neighborhood at night!
House Book
Supplies: wallpaper books and magazines Cut simple house shapes as large as possible from pages of wallpaper book. Provide several of these to each child. Let the children assemble their pages in book fashion by stapling several house-shaped pages together. Then let the children cut out pictures from the magazines of objects which belong in the different rooms of the house. The children glue the pictures belonging in one kind of room on each page. Make a kitchen page, a living room page, a bathroom page and bedroom pages.
Have the children color or paint igloos on dark construction paper. Ask them to draw someone beside the igloo. Have the children tell little stories about their igloos.
Igloo Building
Make igloos using marshmallows & a bit of water to make the m stick together (or marshmallows with icing)
BURR!!
Play with ice at water table
Ice-periment
Ice cubes - two trays - one with blue food coloring, one with yellow food coloring. In a clear plastic cup, pour room temperature 7-up or other clear soda and then drop ice cubes in
Igloo Construction
Use blue and white paper to construct an igloo. Cut or tear the white paper into squares or rectangles. Arrange the squares and rectangles in the shape of a dome on the blue paper. Then glue the pieces into place one at a time. Your child may wish to decorate their picture with crayons and paint to show other things that they learned about igloos. Write your child's description of their picture on the bottom of the page.
Icicle Game
Have the children pretend to be icicles as they move about on the play area. Choose someone to be the sun. When the sun touches someone, he or she must "melt" and fall down, laying very still.
Salt of the Earth
Supplies: 2 cups salt, 1 cup cornstarch, 1 1/4 cups cold water, paper clips. Mix the salt, cornstarch and cold water in a saucepan. Ask an adult to heat the mixture until it is very thick.
Let the dough cool a little. Then squish it between your fingers until it's smooth. Use the dough to form the letters of your name. Press the paper clips into the backs of the letters to make hooks. Let the dough dry until it's hard. Then hang the letters in your room as a reminder to be the "salt of the earth."
Doctor's Bags
Materials: black construction paper, red construction paper, stapler, white chalk items such as band-aids, cotton balls, etc.... Fold the black paper in half & draw a doctor bag on it so that the fold is the bottom of the bag. Cut it out and staple the sides together. Cut a red cross out of the red paper & glue it on the bag. Write Dr. ____ on the other side of the bag. Put cotton balls, band-aids, & gauze pads whatever else you would find in a doctor bag that the kids could play with.
Chef
For a baker or chef make a hat by cutting a strip of white poster board, staple it to fit the size of each child’s head. Then we take one sheet of white tissue paper and staple it to the top of the poster band and fluff up the tissue to look like a bakers hat. The children wear their bakers hat and we bake some cookies for our snack. For art we make pizzas with paper plates for the crust, red paint for the sauce, yellow and white construction paper cut into thin strips for cheese,
brown construction paper cut into circles for sausage.
Profession Sponge Printing
Use various people shapes (available in a variety of school supply catalogs) and let them dip them in skin tone paints and stamp on a piece of paper cut into a house shape.
Baby’s Quilt
Decorate "baby bundle" quilts with scraps of fabric squares....a baby bundle is sort of an oval shape with the top end (the head) a bit wider than the bottom... like the shape of a baby wrapped up in a blanket.... Let them draw a face at the top (or you could supply a circle to be the face and have them draw their facial features then glue on to the "bundle") Fill the remainder of the bundle with fabric squares to be the baby's quilt.
Families
Have available lots of magazines (women's magazines have the best family pictures) and lots of popcicle sticks, glue and scissors. The children can cut pictures out of the magazines and glue on to the sticks for family puppets. Maybe they could make their own family!
Games & Activities
Neighborhood Walk
Take a walk around the neighborhood. Before going, make a list of things that we think we will see. When you return, review the list and make alterations as needed!
Match - Ups
Assemble an assortment of pairs of real objects often used together in or around the house. Some examples are broom and dustpan, paper and pencil, spoon and fork, cup and saucer, shoe and sock, salt and pepper. Discuss how and why each object may be used where we live. Let the children handle the objects. Then mix up all of the objects. Ask the children to find two objects that go together.
Telephone Repair Pantomime
Give directions and let children use motions to silently act out each step of a telephone repair person fixing the broken wire on the telephone line.
1. Get in the truck.
2. Drive the truck to the place needing repair.
3. Haul out all the equipment we will need.
4. Put it on our back.

Salty Scenes
Supplies: 1 cup salt, 1 cup flour, 2 cups water, 2 cups tempera paint. Mix the salt, flour and water. Divide the mixture into four pie tins. Add 1/2 cup of tempera paint to each tin and mix it in. (Use a different color for each tin.) Paint a picture of the world that will remind you to give to others.

Helper for the Day
For our unit on community helpers we usually designate a day for each helper . For example, for a doctor we had a doctor visit the class and talk about what they do. We played with the stethoscope, played a game naming body parts. Talked about nutritious food/
Postman
We had the postman visit our classroom. Before he came we wrote out letters to our special adults. (Most colored pictures) Explained where the address went. We made mailbags out of paper bags from the grocery store and pretended to go to the post office. When the mailman came we sent our mail to our special adults.
Policeman
We also had an officer come to our classroom. We talked about if we were in an emergency how we would contact help by dialing 911. We acted out this scenario and dialed 911 explaining the situation. (a fire) We showed the children how to call for help out the window, put a cloth by the door and stay low to the ground until a police officer or fire fighter found them. We made badges out of aluminum foil.
Librarian
We made a trip to the library and made our own books. Cut several "9 X 12" sheets of construction paper in half. Use a hole punch to make holes down the left side of the pages. Have children make a wordless book by drawing a story.
