TK Weekly Learning Packet: Fall - Week 1

TK Weekly Learning Packet: Fall - Week 1! (This week is perfect for use in one of the first few weeks of school!) This is a printable Distance Learning packet for TK, WEEK ONE and the FIRST week of the Fall (first) trimester for Heidi! In this file, you will find all of the work for one week of school, for TK for both Math and Language Arts subjects. We've included a variety of worksheets and activities, so feel free to use any or all of it with your students! Learning to write names is a huge part of the first month of school, so there are two different EDITABLE NAME worksheets included to make it easier for you to send families an example of how children’s names should be written. We have also included practice with tracing, prewriting strokes, and scissor practice, and art projects for parents (or the teacher) to print out and do. This week focuses on: Alphabet overview Numbers 0-10 overview Basic shape overview Let's Count! activity worksheet Basic Concepts Fluency Charts: Large & Small, Plants & Clothes, Living & Non-Living, Clothes & Food, and Feelings Two Pre-handwriting strokes worksheets Tracing: Follow the arrow! Hands on activities include: Two name writing practice worksheets that are both editable Scissor practice worksheet Self Portrait art project Shape Schoolhouse art project School Bus art project Count & Match - cut and glue worksheet Secret Name Surprise - watercolor activity Pattern blocks guided exploration activity Number sort and match activity   Directions & some templates for art projects are included, along with photos of each completed project. Please note that this packet is appropriate for TK, but can be used in Kindergarten depending on your class needs. We've divided everything up by day of the week, (Monday-Friday) so you have the option of sending this entire packet to students, with everything labeled out on what to do each day! Permission is granted to distribute to families/students in your classroom. Many have asked, so I wrote a blog all about my daily virtual schedule! I talk about the schedule I try and keep to most days, along with any other resources I use, where to get them, and how I use a variety of tools to help support my teaching and my students learning as much as possible! Some of the most valuable resources I use daily is our Letter of the Week via Google Slides and Number of the Day via Google Slides. In my (Heidi’s) experiences, children in TK generally need much more time to learn, and even more developmentally appropriate, hands-on activities than are necessary for most children in Kindergarten. Check out our HeidiSongs internet video site for more videos and songs to help kids learn their letters, shapes, numbers, and more, and follow along with the Monthly Kindergarten Pacing Guide collections if wanted. However, a subscription to our internet video streaming site is not included. I highly recommend that buyers take a look at my Parent Guide Posters that explain how to teach a child to hold a pencil, use scissors, glue, glue stick, write names, etc. They are fully editable, so that you can change the language used to cue children with your own directions. These are NOT INCLUDED in this packet, because they would have driven the price up dramatically, and not everyone may want to use both those posters and these lesson plans. However, I will be sending them home with my students along with this packet.
