Upper Kindergarten Doctor Visit

Upper Kindergarten were very excited to welcome Dr Patel to our class. First, Dr Patel asked the children a variety of questions such as “What is a Doctor?” and “Why would you go to a Doctor?”. The children showed some understanding by saying when their tummy hurts or if they hurt their leg.

Next, Dr Patel shared what was inside her doctor’s bag and invited the children to take a closer look at some of the equipment including a stethoscope, thermometer, blood pressure machine and medicine.

Finally, Dr Patel ended the session by asking the children what they needed to do to stay healthy. The children remembered what they have been learning in class and said “Eat lots of fruit and vegetables”, “Drink water” and “Eat sweets only sometimes”.
