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 week:
Blocks- Children are encouraged to use blocks to build buildings they
are familiar with such as those they live in or visit often.

dramatic play area and use the props and clothing provided.
