A step-by-step guide to meaningful lesson planning for preschool and prekindergarten. With a little work on the front end, lesson planning for Preschool and Pre-K can be so much easier. Just start with the end in mind and find the best developmentally appropriate activities and centers for your class. I’ve been teaching for 12 years, and I know that using this method has cut my planning time considerably. I now have time for MYSELF on the weekends!
Useful links to some great lesson planning materials too!

Hi Diane! I like your method to lesson planning. I have two specific problems. One is my school is learning a completely different curriculum. The only support given has been online videos and training I had to complete. I'm in a private school and we do not plan on the grade nor have a prep. It is never required or enforced. There really is no time until 3:30 when the walkers go home. At least 2 of 3 teachers leave by then. I will stay until 5 or later many days! The biggest problem I have is I tend to wait until the weekend to gather supplies I do not have in my class week by week. This means running to Dollar Tree, Michael's, Staples or even a thrift store. I tend to print visuals or activities all weekend too. I know I need to plan a month in advance so I am not spending my weekends running to stores/printing. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

I started out exactly like you! I spent all my weekends planning and gathering supplies. A lot of the time I did not know what I was going to do from one week to the next, so I had to scramble every weekend. We followed a curriculum but it was terrible and never had enough stuff for the kids to do. I relied on Teachers Pay Teachers and pinterest. It is literally like planning a little kid's birthday party every day of the week! what is your curriculum? do you do themes? I'd love to help! Email me at teachprek101@gmail.com and I'll see what I can send you to help you out. The best advice I can give is to plan your entire year week by week first-not down to specific activities, but themes, holidays, etc. Then you know where you need to go. That way you can look at your calendar, see what you have coming up and punch out 2-4 weeks lesson plans at once-beginning with the end in mind, and specific goals for the week. I also have days that I always do the same type of centers...like letter fomation is always monday, journals are always friday, shapes are wednesday, etc...that means, I know I'm hitting my standards and I just need to find the activities to match the standards. I can tell you more later...and I know I have lesson planning videos with links to all of my lesson planning materials.

I'd be so happy to help! I am sorry it took me so long to get back to you...my mom has Alzheimer's and it has been a very difficult month! I'm back on track and I would love to help. One thing I remember when I first started out is that I overestimated what the little ones could actually do and understand. I don't know if you are having that problem, but I know that simplifying everything and lowering your expectations is a start! feel free to contact me via email at teachprek101@gmail.com

I think that a lot of what I show in my videos will fit into EYFS requirements...the social and emotional, self-regulation, and physical development can be added in with activities that you do everyday and with everyday experience. so much is learned through playing with other children, learning how to attend to stories and books, and learning to follow 2and 3 step instructions etc. is there someting specific you wanted?
