The Alphabet and Numbers will be an ongoing
process throughout the year. Various activities will
be used, but most of the learning comes from
discussions I have with the children every day
of the year - whether it's during circle time, while
playing a game, or even outdoor play; numbers,
counting and the alphabet sounds are always covered.

a review of all colors and shapes

















Those of you who are new to my pages, I had the topics and all the ideas for 1998-99 on the web for free until fall 1999. Then I decided to sell the 1999-2000 curriculum for $40.00 plus shipping. What a great sucess it was and I've had numerous requests to do another. Well, for the 2000-01 school year, I'll be using a combination of both old ones instead of a new one. But good news, I've been asked to create a Christian based curriculum for a center in Alabama and it is also up for sale. This time all the ideas would be on disk ready for you to print out but all the worksheet and color sheet originals would be ready to copy.
