Lesson Planning with Me

Hello! I teach an integrated preschool classroom, which means I am responsible for students ages three to five with special needs of all types as well as typical developing students. My students range in ability from a toddler to a typical kindergartener. Therefore, my activities must be able to reach a wide range and be easily adjusted for multiple ability levels.

I created this blog as a way to keep track of the fantastic ideas I have gathered over the years. Because I just randomly add activities to the blog, use the search, standard list, or theme list on the left side to find the activities you are after!

I also create and sell resources that can be found at TeachersPayTeachers and Teacher's Notebook.

Alphabet Class Book


Our Class Alphabet
1.          Cut construction paper in half.
2.          Use one half page for each child.
3.          On each page glue the photograph of an individual child.
4.          Under the picture print the first letter of the child’s name.
5.          Under the first letter print the child’s first name.
6.          Repeat for each child in the class.
7.          Arrange the pages in alphabetical order.  It is all right to have a number of children with the same first letter in their names.
8.          Determine which letters are missing.
9.          Use the magazine or toy catalog to find colored pictures of objects that start with the missing letters and make a page for each letter, so that each letter of the alphabet has at least one page with either a photograph of a child or a picture of an object that starts with that letter.
10.      Read the children their “Class Alphabet Book” during circle time.  Encourage the children to “read” the book aloud: “A is for Allison, B is for Bill, etc.”  Make the book available for them to look at during playtime.
