All About Me Preschool Lesson Plans

ALL ABOUT ME
A great theme for the beginning of the year, right?  How many of you use this theme with your littles?
I plan on sharing all my preschool plans free here on this blog {check out my Weekly Themes here}.  Below is an example of the lesson plan pages (this one is from the apple unit).  As many of you know, I am an home-childcare provider, therefore I must create lessons suitable for multi-age situations.  See more on THAT here. So, the top portion of the lesson plan includes all the children. Below the ‘pre-k only’ like is when the younger ones are taking a morning nap or free playing.

Here is the second lesson plan page. As you can see my Pre-K age kids will be doing Writing Journals (mainly free-writing), Math Journal (more on that to come) and Handwriting Without Tears.  As you can see the lesson plan is for a 4 day week.  I know that does not work for everyone, but it allows us some catch up time or special day activities.

Included in each lesson plan pack you will also find all the songs on 8.5x11 sheets of paper, ready to be printed, laminated and displayed.  I found it important to display the songs, rather than just have the teacher read them off the lesson plan to promote a print-rich environment and help our little learners be more print aware.
Also, included are the picture cards.  Great for young ones, as it gives a visual to the vocabulary words learned.  I tried to supply a variety of real-life photos and clip-art style pictures.

  15. These will be fun for the kids to do. I'm subbing my sister's preschool class and I've never really taught before but this looks fun and easy to do. Luckily she has an outdoor classroom so things wont get too messy. Thanks again.
