You finished the the year with a bang! Two weeks off, or a light class load depending upon whether you are teaching nursery or day care and suddenly the new year is upon you. What do you do to add sparkle to the January curriculum? You reach for Imogene Forte's Jnauary Patterns, Projects and Plans. If you are lucky, you own the complete set of these handy monthly guides. Each month features check lists, calendar, stationary, and several well thought out themes. The delightful art work and format brings continuity to your curriculum. This series is a must for every early childhood teacher. January's book is especially delightful.

This is a must have item for every early childhood teacher. Best of all April Patterns, Projects and Plans is part of a nine month series by this prolific author. Each book features the same format. This enables you to have a a curriculum with a unified professional look. I especially enjoy that each month will features a national education theme (dental, library week etec.) along with the usual holiday fare. The reproducible pages contain outstanding graphics that are unique and whimsical. I have been teaching early chilhood for twenty years and this series is my favorite monthly curriculum resource. It also is the most borrowed curriculum item from the teachers' lending library self.
