What's In the Box? - "The Alphabet House"


Mother Goose Time’s June curriculum is called “The Alphabet House”. We will be reviewing the alphabet and exploring the many places that people and animals call home. Even though we’re just starting out this month, I’m sure Miss M will still love everything :)


Here is a picture of the theme web for this month. It shows the different subjects that will be covered each week/day and how they relate to the main theme.

 
Each month in your teacher’s tool bag you’ll receive a Teacher Guide and a Planning Journal. In addition to these, I’ve added the Little Goose supplement to our curriculum that we receive each month. It will help me adjust the activities for my 2 year old and make it easier for her to participate.


Also included is a Skills Overview chart and Gathering List. The chart shows all the different skills that the children will be performing with all the different activities. The gathering list is great too. It shows all the supplies that will be needed for the month.


Each month you’ll receive a new CD with songs that go along with the month’s theme.


You’ll get a new themed calendar for the month too.


Here’s our circle time basics items all set up. You’ll get new letters, numbers, shapes, colors, and friendly behavior feather.

 
You’ll also be provided with a monthly family newsletter that you can give to parents of your kiddos. It shows some of the things that the kids will be learning as well as suggestions of books to read and family activities. I thought this was really neat!


There’s also 20 premade packets stuffed with pretty much everything you’ll need as well as bonus days. This month we have Father’s Day as our bonus day.



You’ll receive a new storytime book each month. This month we’ll be reading a fun retelling of the classic Goldilocks. It’s very cute J


 
You’ll get a new My Little Journal each month too. This month kids will be reviewing letters, numbers, and colors.


You’ll also get a new I Can Read book. In it, they’ll practice the month’s sight words and they’re displayed on the back of the book as well. We have our sight words displayed with our circle time display.

Games!! Little ones get to play lots of different and fun games to help with their learning as well. Here are some of the games that we will be playing this month.


Here’s an example of one day’s supplies and activities. This is Day 1. There are so much more great things included with this month’s curriculum! In addition to all these, children will:
·         Experience over 125 activities
·         Create 20 of their own projects in Art, Math, and Literacy
·         Build 33 skills over 7 domains
Come join us in all the fun! Next month’s theme will be "Nature Detectives".
