The most difficult part of teaching is in the planning! What do I teach? How will I teach it effectively? When do I teach it? Are universal questions for all teachers.

Are your teachers frustrated with spending hours & hours planning to meet licensing standards?

With limited paid planning time, many teachers must spend 30 to 90 minutes of their own time pulling together their weekly plans.

Have you provided bookshelves filled with wonderful books and ideas…

but teachers say they don’t have time to find them!

Teachers and directors feel anxious…  Do I have the right training?  Do I have the right materials?  Do I have the right information?  Do I have the right ideas? to comply with all of the new standards?

I’ve got the solution for you!

With everything pulled together in just one place…

So planning is a snap!

Let’s take a peek at how easy planning is!

1. Select a theme…

there are 10 to choose from!

2. Grab the box with the activity cards…

Each theme has over 100 lesson choices – a total of over 1300 cards in all!

3. Review the manual…

it’s packed with ideas to help them “Set the Stage”!

With suggestions for bringing the theme… around the room…

With suggestions for bringing the theme… and all of their learning centers…

4. Using the table of contents… they make lesson selections.

Which can be written easily on the lesson plans… I provide several to choose from.

Whether they plan weekly…

or daily.

5. The activity cards are easy to find…

they’re color & alpha-numerically coded!

6. The cards are placed into the weekly planner…

it’s so easy and yet keeps everyone organized!

It’s that quick…

And a life-saver for a substitute who can now follow the detailed activities!

It’s that quick… And a life-saver for a substitute who can now follow the detailed activities! (No more missing lesson plans!) “Hooray!”

Teachers just keeping picking and placing cards…

until the week is complete.

Does the class want to play a game from a different theme? And it is so flexible!

Does the class want to play a game from a different theme? And it is so flexible!

Does the class want to play a game from a different theme? Just go and get it! It’s all there to use whenever it’s needed! And it is so flexible!

So whether they want to use ideas from another theme, or add holiday activities…

they can mix and match the cards to respond to their class’ unique interests… So whether they want to use ideas from another theme, or add holiday activities…

Look at the wide variety of activities… for just one theme!

Even the holidays include activities all 8 cognitive areas… offering comprehensive learning experiences!

With this system, you’re providing an emergent approach to learning that is developmentally appropriate and includes a balance of both child- and teacher-initiated activities!

What kinds of creative activities are included?

Many teachers and parents focus on building literacy and fine motor skills… This activity…

develops both… in a way that’s fun for everyone!

Many lessons offer variations or extensions so that teachers can decide… whether to use letters, numbers, colors or shapes! Now your program can truly meet the different cognitive needs of your students!

To develop thinking skills… try this lesson using Venn diagrams!
