Last week I introduced the very first of “Simply September’s Weekly Homeschool Themes”. I also shared why I chose to supplement my kindergartner and preschooler’s virtual learning with a homeschool curriculum. (You can find all the details here along with week 1’s “Apple Week“.)
Fast forward one week, we are now kicking off week 2 with studying the 5 senses and I designed a curriculum to help you do the same! Worksheets, talking points, daily schedule, book recommendations, and video links… you get it all here!
What’s Included in the 5 Senses Week Theme
Included you will receive:
- A daily schedule which breaks down which activities to do which day (schedule provides for one off day (pre-determined on Wednesday) but can be changed. Schedule also includes math/writing/reading activities daily, with a “Friday Fun” day for themed experiments and crafts. The daily schedule is fully hyperlinked to books and videos so you can simply click and go!
- Book recommendations pertaining to the theme. Linked to Amazon so you can purchase quickly if desired, or better yet, check out from your library!
- Video links pertaining to the theme. Direct YouTube links that incorporate age appropriate field trips, lessons, etc. All videos have been pre-screened to give you confidence in hitting “play” without watching prior.
- Bonus activities should your child seek additional resources.
- 12 custom worksheets (worksheet number may vary per theme).
What’s New
In addition to all the element’s included last week, I have also added a “Talking Points” sheet. This simple sheet builds off the lessons taught in the recommended books and videos (noted above). Help guide daily lessons and make sure you cover all the main points at this age appropriate level with these cheat sheet talking points!
Modifications
As the title describes, this curriculum is designed for preschool-1st grade. Utilizing the same worksheet no matter the noted ages, you can easily modify to fit your child’s needs. Check out my Instagram here where I share story highlights for each themed week to demonstrate how I advance for my kindergartener and modify for my preschooler.
