Theme for the month:
Welcome to Pre-K!
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 theme:
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.
