8/11/2019

It's Back to School Time!

Which means coming up with all of those engaging plans that you work tirelessly over.

Come along and plan with me every Monday, because planning together is always more enjoyable then planning alone.

At School Lesson Plans Week 1

The first few weeks of school is all about teaching our little ones routines and procedures. So you will notice that I spend a lot of time on demonstrating, role modeling and practicing skills. This time will pay off when it comes to a smooth running classroom. When children know the procedures so well that they don't have to be told. This is crucial for preventing behavior problems right from the start. Children will be able to move freely in the classroom and take control of their own learning.

Do you dread opening up your sensory table during worktime?

Let me share a little secret with you, all you need to do is place some squares on the ground around your sensory table and provide your kiddos with small brooms and dustpans.

These squares will serve two purposes.

It give children a place to stand around the table. This will provide each child with their own personal space.
It give children a place to sweep their mess to for easy clean up. Have children clean up their side of the sensory table by sweeping up everything that was spilled during their play. Encourage children to sweep to the square and then use the dust pan once they have everything swept there.

Now be brave take those lids off your sensory tables, your kiddos will be glad you did.

Have you ever stared at a stack of planner from years past and thought what a waste of time and energy?

I have come to realize that lugging around a planner day after day and squeezing everything into a small square that I can't even read isn’t for me. Let’s not forget about all of the messy crossed out plans that had to be moved around because of that unexpected fire drill.

And…

The Feeling of writing and rewriting the same thing over and over again year after year because your following the same curriculum.

That’s when I said enough is enough!

There has to be a better way.

That’s when I decided to embrace the digital world of lesson planning.
