The curriculum at the itty-bitty Buckaroo preschool is HANDS-ON! Whatever subject, whatever theme, whatever letter we are learning it all boils down to giving the students as many hands-on experiences as possible.
Our days will be filled with:
- alphabet adventures
- stories in the book nook
- problem-solving using our mystery math bag
- arts n' crafts
- early writing using scribbles, squiggles, and sound spelling
- delicious snacks
- science experiments
- social studies
- music
- show n' tell
- motor development
- and lots of time for PLAY!
I use the Davis County DESK standards, my bible of Developmentally Appropriate Practice from the NAEYC as well as the Pre-Kindergarten guidelines from the Utah State Office of Education to map out my curriculum and learning goals. I'm always on the lookout for new ideas, new research, and new knowledge to help my students get the very best learning experiences.
