Curriculum context and long-term goals

Pre-K class, with its 20 children, is in its first half of the year. By the end of the year, the children are expected to be on a routine, use a calendar to determine the day and date, and tell time using the calendar.

Pre-assessment

Most, but not all, children have a practical understanding of the concept of time. The unit will bring into focus the state's requirement of the passage of time with actual events. In which they have to advance the concepts in Kindergarten.

Goals

CD-MA3.4d Associates and describes the passage of time with actual events.

CD-SC3.4a Observes, explores and describes a variety of animals and plants. Describes their basic needs and life cycles.

CLL9.4a Draws pictures and copies letters and/or numbers to communicate.

PDM6.4b Uses hand-eye coordination to manipulate small objects with ease.

Rationale:

Objectives

       create a time line of their school days

       use Paper leaves to record classroom activities

       work cooperatively in pairs or groups to finish projects

Post-assessment

Built into several activities are materials, available from the district's curriculum, that assess the level of student understanding. This unit will use or adapt all those that are related to state standards.

Special needs

Two children have advanced capabilities in communicating. For differentiation purposes, they will be provided with more complex instructions for activities that will cause them to make their own personal timeline of the day.

Two children have difficulty in working with other peers. For differentiation purposes, they will be provided with the opportunity to work together to accomplish the goals.

Last but not least, Two children have difficulty with fine motor skills. For differentiation purposes they will be given schedule pictures in which they will have to color and cut out to work on these skills.

Management and Guidance

We will spend the year learning to work together to create a safe learning community. Two children have behaviors, and special adjustments have to be made. For instance, Jack and Kayla will work together on activities until they will be able to work together with the other children.
