Pre-K Themes is a series of mini teaching topics that are focused towards preschool and Pre-K learners. Although the activities are written to cover one full day of activities and related games, centers and other printables, there are enough ideas to extend the theme longer if needed.

This series of teaching units saves time and money, and all activities are solidly supported by the foundational concepts leading to the Common Core Kindergarten standards. You can slide a unit effortlessly into your usual curriculum lesson plans when you are in a hurry, or you can use the units as a central focus of your curriculum.

The learning areas included are:
• A Spark! Activity to ignite interest in the topic
• Large group learning time
• Discovery centers
• Music and movement
• A story suggestion
• Small group game, and a
• Record and remember activity

All the printables needed are included – click on the activity description to go to the related printables.
