At-Home Preschool Lesson Plans

, by . Leave a Comment

This series has been going on for a while, but I just stumbled on this great At Home Preschool lesson plan series from No Time for Flashcards.

These little lunchtime learning sessions have a different theme each day such as math, literacy, science and reading. She has options for making the tasks a little easier or a little harder depending on the age or motivation of your kids.

For instance, you can identify all the shapes you can see from the table while you’re having lunch or go on a full-on shape scavenger hunt.

These are great, simple ideas that you can use with little kids at home, and now that there are several weeks of lessons there, you could even do one in the morning and one in the afternoon if you wanted.

Check out the page linked above for all the lesson plans that are there so far.

Earth Day Printables and Activities

I know doing printables for Earth Day doesn’t sound very eco friendly, but it does give you a chance to talk to kids about how you can make the classroom or the home a little greener by only printing what you need, using low ink or only black and white printing, printing on the back of other pages, using recycled paper and recycling what you can when you are done.

These Earth Day printables help kids learn about Earth Day or use earth designs.

Pre-K Pages has Earth Day math printables, including a dice rolling game with a recycling theme, graphing, number grouping and sequencing activities.

123 Homeschool 4 Me has a variety of printables for Earth Day including writing prompts, plant life cycle worksheets and links to other activities.

A Dab of Glue will Do has a little printable emergent reader book that explores the basics of Earth Day and some things we can all do to be kind to the planet. You can print it in color or black and white and have kids color it themselves.

Speaking of coloring pages, Preschool Mom has a collection of coloring pages with color versions that you can use as posters in the classroom as well as having kids color the black and white ones.

I love all the printable hands on activities from Differentiated Kindergarten, which help kids build fine motor skills with an Earth Day twist. You’ll find printable mats for use with playdough, geo boards, snap cubes, pattern blocks and Legos, as well as a Q-tip painting activity. You can get these when you sign up for emails.
