The goal for early childhood teachers is to create and manage a developmentally sound and enriching learning environment. The practical tips and tools in this book will help teachers do just that.

The whole-child and sensory approaches in this book are predicated on the idea that children will use every aspect of their senses and bodies to learn about the world in which we live. A teacher who picks up this manual will have a usable reference source that is all inclusive. In general, few adaptations are necessary for those children who have special needs. The encouraged approach is to teach children the same, as children. Of course, our goal as teachers is to do what is necessary to make each child successful. That is the basis for this book.

All material has been class tested. Children from ages two to five have completed these activities successfully and with ease.

This book will give you, the teacher, the tools and information needed to begin your preschool year on a positive note and to keep it running effectively from the first day until summer vacation. Provided within these pages are ideas on planning, organizing your classroom, developmental guidelines, handling behavior, setting up schedules and conferences, health and safety issues, issues on inclusion of children with special needs, and several ideas for an end-of-the-year program your families will talk about for years to come! Also included are the what, where, and why of the preschool curriculum. Finally, most sections of this book end with a page provided so that you can add notes of your own on each topic. In this way, you can keep all the information you need together in one place.

Includes:

  • Technology
  • Field Trips
  • Inclusion
  • Parent Conferences
  • Free Play
  • Year-End Programs
  • Health & Safety
  • Fine/Gross Motor Skills
  • Snack Time
  • Classroom Ideas
  • Patterns
  • Developmental Checklist
