Pre-K Lesson Plans

This is my first time making my own lesson plan and I would love to share it!  Please review it and leave feedback :)

This lesson plan is aimed for boys ages 3-4.  It can be altered to girls but this coming year I will only have boys so you will not see girly things in the themes.

I am planning for a 5 day lesson plan.  These links only document 4 days.  If I find the time I will try to upload the 5th days lesson. I have them handwritten in my binder right now.

There is an activity book I am using for the lesson plan as well that has handwriting practice in it and a few activity pages that correlate to the theme.  This can be easily substituted for any other handwriting activity or activity book that has A-Z and 1-10 practice in it.

Please keep in mind these are my first drafts and I just want to share the ideas for anyone who is looking.  I pencil in edits all the time and don't remind myself to review the hand motions on the lesson plan because we use the motion every time we say the letter, therefore we are doing it a lot during the week.

I will be adding links to each week category as the year goes on probably twice a week.
I counted out the weeks so that week 9 falls on the week of Halloween.

The week before Halloween I will be on a Honeymoon and will not be doing preschool that week but plan to jump right back in on my return.

Lessons below are geared for boys age 5.  Again I didn't have a girl in this preschool year but Doll Dragon (my daughter) did join in some of the activities and enjoyed them.

In these lesson plans we focused more on the theme then the letter.  At this point, age 5, Little Dragon had his letters figured out.

We worked on being ready for Kindergarten.  Numbers 11-20, shape recognition, uppercase/lowercase, and reading.

Elephant Faces

Elephant Faces (masks) We used:  Three paper plates Paint or markers Paint brushes Stapler Scissors Yarn First paint the bottom of the paper plate.  While the kids painted I cut the other paper plate in half for the ears. Using the third plate I cut out the textured part of the plate to make the trunks.   Paint (or color) the rest of the pieces.  Staple them together to make an elephant. Cut out small holes for eyes and small holes behind the ears to attach the yarn. Now that the lesson is over I have the masks hanging in the playroom.  They make a neat decoration. 

Painting With Squirt Guns

We did this as a Fathers Day project, but it fits in outside play perfectly.   I liked this for Fathers because it was an interactive activity for the kids to do with Jerry to celebrate him and the time they enjoy spending with him. I filled 1 gun with yellow paint and 2 guns with black paint.  The squirt guns we used were from the dollar store and had a decently big hole to pour the paint into.  Some squirt guns have itty bitty holes that make squirting paint into the gun very difficult. Taped off the canvas...and made the kids pose Then the guns were handed to the kids and dad.  Instructions were to shoot the canvas not each other. Very simple. Start squirting!   The squirting went on and on.  I refilled the guns a couple times so the activity could continue.     Jerry also took time with each Dragon to squirt with them.  With a Star Wars theme we were looking at having black as the primary color and yellow as the secondar

Mini Story Boards

Mini Story Boards We used:  Foam Cookie sheets Magnets Paper I found the cookie sheets at the dollar store and loved the idea of the kids telling their own stories using movable magnets.   I cut out flowers with the foam (you can cut out any design and use construction paper instead of foam) and little people then stuck a magnet to the back.  I cut out bugs and stuck magnets to the back of those too.    Then I drew little scenes that would inspire a story and put them on the cookie sheet.  One demonstration and their imaginations took off on their own :)
