Creative Themes For Every Day Grades Preschool K PDF Download

A thematic activity resource for teachers who want a creative, hands-on learning environment for preschool and kindergarten aged children. Teachers will learn original songs, finger-plays, flannel board stories, unique games, story suggestions and child centered activities that relate to the weekly themes. Circle Time is the time of day when we "explore" stories, "experience" songs, ask questions about the world we live in and act silly. At the messy table, we smoosh shaving cream between our fingers. We mix colors and experiment with different textures. We blow milk bubbles and put our hands to work experiencing the world. The possibilities are endless at the Messy Table. Creative Pre- K will provide you with daily activities that give preschoolers the skills they will need "before" they learn to read and write. These skills strengthen small muscles, reinforce left to right eye movement, and build language skills. The Cut & Color Table gives the preschoolers the confidence they will need to embark upon their next, great adventure; kindergarten. The creative art projects in Creative Pre- K encourage self expression. Give a child a paint brush and you will see his creativity blossom. Give a child collage materials and some glue and you will see his unique spirit unleashed. But, give a child a worksheet and remind him to stay between the lines and you will see a child with stifled creativity who would rather watch television. Our projects are open ended, creative and fun! Every preschool program should have a balance between outside free play and structured movement activities. Creative Pre- K encourages outside, dramatic play as well as movement with a purpose. Creative Pre-K includes 34 themes and 170 subthemes across five content areas.
