Simply print as they are OR move activities to the days you want them or replace activities with your own!You’ll find my standards listed under each activity. This is where you will enter YOUR program’s standards (that you added to the Conversion Chart) 1. Refer to the conversion chart you completed and look up my Standard Letter/Number.2. Replace that letter and number with YOUR program’s equivalent that you typed into

the Conversion Chart.3. Print!

The Weekly AND Daily Planning forms are both 100% editable so you can move the activities to the days you want to do them or even replace them with your own activities! (If you do that-be sure to change them on the daily planning forms as well AND replace the standards in that box with the correct standards for the activity you have replaced mine with!)NOTE: The blue areas will NOT print blue, don’t worry! Those areas are the “editable areas”. They will print with a white background when you print!

The blank card below is to add the month you would like! Simply cut out, laminate and print the month’s name with a dry erase marker so that you can erase and use whenever you like throughout the year.




Honey Playdough

2 c (500 mg) flour ¾ c. (96 mg) salt1 T (15 ml)oil 1 c (250 ml) water¼ c. (63 ml) honey

1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl.2. Move to a floured table for children to knead.3. Mix and knead until dough is completely mixed and not sticky

any more.



Print and laminate as many of the following page as you want in your interest center.

Provide the playdough that you made from this packet along with many other colors.

Let the children design and create their own Teddy Bear (yes, mixing colors will happen!)

Also, provide buttons, ribbons and other miscellaneous items for the children to use!

Design A Teddy Bear Playdough Mat



1. Print out several of the Teddy Bear shape from the next page.2. Color them in different designs using different colors or patterns.3. Choose a ‘key’ for the back of each piece. For example put the letter A on

the back of each piece of the first one you make. The letter B on the back of the second, etc. (This is so the children can separate the pieces that will need to go together in each puzzle should they get combined in a pile!)

4. Laminate.5. Cut out pieces on the lines.6. Provide the puzzles for the children to put together.

Extension: Provide many print outs at a table for the children to design using markers, paint, colored pencils, stickers, etc.

Encourage them to cut out the pieces.Encourage them to print their names on the backs of each piece for identification.

Laminate.

They now have their own puzzle!

*I do NOT encourage activities that require children to “stay within the lines”! If you choose to use the Extension activity listed above, put the papers in a center as a choice.

Please remember, “coloring within the lines” is not an appropriate preschool goal! Helping them develop the fine motor/muscle skills in their hands by freely using the tools (stickers, markers, etc.) is appropriate! My intended goal for providing the extension activity is to provide an activity that helps them to practice using scissors, practice printing their names and to have the choice to design their OWN teddy bear puzzle, as many will likely want to do after using the ones that YOU have created and provided to them to use.This should be a CHOICE activity!

Song Card & Song PosterHow to use:• Print and laminate the song card below (it is 5” X 3”).• Place in a can or box with other cards of songs your children

love!• In transitional times (waiting to go outside or wash hands,

etc.), pull out your song box or song can (I use a decorated coffee can!).

• Shuffle the cards in your hands saying “Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle” and your children yell “STOP”!

• When they yell stop, whichever card is on top is the one you sing! The kids LOVE this!

Each theme will include one of these cards that correspond with the song poster for the theme to add to your Song Card Collection!On the next page, you’ll find the Song Poster! Print and laminate for use over the years!
