4.0 out of 5 stars The book provides weekly theme units for preschool., June 15, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Early Childhood Themes Through the Year (Paperback)

The book provides weekly theme units for preschool. It covers a wide range of topics and provides useful ideas. It has a blank weekly planner that can be copied and used by the teacher in creating other theme units. It gives some basic recipes and describes how to make some basic childhood "tools" like file folder games. Buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Beginners!, September 22, 2004

This review is from: Early Childhood Themes Through the Year (Paperback)

This book offers the early educator a premade, ready to go lesson plan, week by week. A must for teachers just starting out in early education. Theme topics cover songs, books, food experiences, and circle time activities. Many flannel board patterns to copy as well. Themes can be expanded on and modified to fit your classroom. Ideas can be used in toddler classrooms as well as pre-k. Only complaint is that it doesn't continue through the summer months. However, it does have a brief section for suggestions for summer. I definitely recommend!
