Week of September 25, 2017
Welcome to pre-k 5
Goals for student understanding
by the end of the unit:
• My classroom and program are safe
places where I learn, play and have fun.
• I am an important member of my
classroom community; my thoughts, needs, ideas and abilities matter.
• The teachers and other
adults at my program keep me safe, care about me and support my learning.
• In my classroom I use materials
carefully and make choices about where I work and play.
• Classroom rules and routines help
me learn and stay safe.
Lessons and activities for the week:
Blocks- Children are encouraged to use
blocks to build buildings they are familiar with such as those they live in or
visit often.
Pretend Play- Children are invited to explore the
dramatic play area and use the props and clothing provided.
Art- Children are invited to create art
in the art area to decorate the dramatic play area, or home. Students can hang
their art in the dramatic play area.
Science- Mirrors will be added to the science
center for children to explore and discuss what they see.
Math- A picture of each child will be cut
apart, thus creating a puzzle. Students are invited to assemble their own
puzzles and their peers’ puzzles as well.
Library- Students are able to read books
from the classroom library to the puppets that are provided.
Writing/Technology- Weekly learning games on iPads are
provided.
Sensory- Sand and water, or play-doh.
