Transcription of Preschool Lesson Plans For Children Age 2-3
1 Preschool Lesson Plans For Children Age 2-3. I just wanted to take a few moments to explain what I have done with these lessons. I used Michelle Lewis'. Skills List for Age 2 as a guide. I have also gathered ideas from various sources and incorporated some of them throughout the lessons. I want to put links here for some of the websites that I refer to in the lessons: Calvary Chapel ( ). This site has hundreds of lessons to print that include fill in the blank, verses to memorize, coloring pages, puzzles, etc. Free Online Phonics ( ). Go to this site to see all about this free phonics program that is available online. As the teacher, you will have to take a test and be approved before they give you access to the lessons. They want to be sure that you are serious about teaching your child to read. I have done this and it is a neat program. It includes games to play, songs to sing, etc. Even though this is really for Children age 4-5, Children age 2-3 can benefit from the games and songs as well.
2 There are various worksheet sites I have listed on my Toddler & Preschool Fun Page. Refer to these whenever you would like letter, number, color, or shape worksheets. These are lessons are only a guide for you. Do as much or as little as you have time for. Most important of all make it fun! Learning should be fun! Don't force your child at this age please! This is merely a guide for you that will give you ideas of things you can do. I wasn't really wanting to do a formal Preschool . curriculum with my 2 year old son, but wanted some kind of schedule so I would know what to focus on. If I. don't have a schedule a lot of times things don't get done. I hope that this schedule will allow me to use my quality time with him in a productive manner. I hope it helps you as well!
