Mental Checklist for the Preschool Homeschool – Motor Skills As a teacher, objective based education was the norm. Each lesson was planned via a ‘backward mapping’ process in which what the students were expected to be able to do by the end of the lesson was the primary focus. The objectives. I grew to hate the acronym ‘TSWBAT…’ It took me some time to figure out that it stood for, ‘The Students Will Be Able To:’ I hated, loathed, and despised posting objectives on my board every day. Mine was always a somewhat unconventional classroom in that the narrative of the lesson was the most important thing, and if the story took an unexpected turn that day… oh well… let’s learn something else instead. For English, as well as for Biology. No question was too hard for the class to find an answer to. Lesson plans always seemed more of a ‘suggested guide’ and rather than have a daily plan, I would prefer a weekly or monthly plan, leaving room for ‘exploration’. Don’t get me wrong… I see real value in objectives. I think it is very important to have some form of ‘road map’ or the curriculum gets bogged down and goes nowhere. You have to begin with the end in mind. My classroom application, however well it worked well in high school in Australia, was not so much of a fit in middle school in the US. I received low marks in several reviews because I did not have a lesson plan to show my supervisor at the end of a ‘surprise observation’. Never you mind that all the other categories were checked off as ‘excellent’. So I have come to the conclusion that, as good as I was as a classroom teacher, (and I WAS good… VERY good...) I don’t actually fit well in the current factory model of schooling, and might, in fact, do much better as a homeschooler in this day and age. And I will still have objectives – but not so much as a list of items to be tested; more as a mental checklist for me to make sure that I do have an ‘end’ in mind for each unit of work. Preschool is a little different in that there is no list of dates, facts and figures to be learned. Instead there is a series of skills and concepts that must be mastered if later learning is to be successful. And yes, later learning is not simply a list of dates, facts and figures….the learning of skills and concepts continues into adulthood. It’s just that there are more dates and facts and figures to learn later ;) Over the next few weeks, I plan to outline my Preschool Homeschool Mental Checklists for Mum for a range of Objective Groups. This week is Motor Skills. Rather than try to plan lessons around each item (as one would for school objectives, sadly) this is more of a list to glance at occasionally and select a few items to focus on over the course of a week or so. Better yet, pick an activity that your child loves, go through the list to see what skills it hits, and then select a couple of extra skills you can extend the activity with.

Get those kids moving and learning at the same time with this super easy gross motor game. Let the Color Races begin!
This was our first day using our felt body parts and working on internal organs. The children LOVED it. Teaching Elements for today: We eat food We chew food with our teeth to break it into small pieces Food travels down the esophagus to the stomach The stomach is full of acid The acid breaks down the food The food goes into the small intestine where nutrients are absorbed Then it goes into the large intestine where the water is squeezed out Then the left over food comes out as poop. Beginning Discussion - Focused on discussing our food and stomachs, their importance, our favorite foods, why we need to eat good foods, how those good food nutrients work in our body to make us healthy and strong. Language - We worked our body parts word wall, going over the internal organ names, reviewing beginning and ending sounds. Math - We laid out a "small intestine" to see how long 20 feet was and compared that to a 5 foot large intestine. While creating the number line, we worked on our number order, number identification, and odd/even. Even though they are right around 3, the children were able to complete the number line independently. Of course, we had to measure some other large items as well... Since our number cards are not 12 inches tall, to make it easier to space the numbers the next time I do this unit, I folded up the "intestines" in one foot increments to use as a guide. Science & Fine Motor -How our bodies break down food: Give each child a slice of bread, have them tear it into pieces (teeth), add water and stir (spit), add more water (stomach acid) have them mush it with their hands (stomach muscles mushing), pour onto a towel and roll up (small intestine) and see how the water comes out (nutrients), squeeze the towel (large intestine) and open to find the solid (poop). Gross Motor - For gross motor the children took turns laying down on a cot and placing the body parts. Anatomy Templates $1.00 TPT This was available as a free choice activity throughout the rest of the unit. Song/Finger Play - Again, I couldn't find ANY songs or finger plays that addressed the digestive system, so I made up my own. Digestion [Tune: If You’re Happy and You Know It] Original song by Little Stars Learning If you’re hungry and you know it eat some food If you’re hungry and you know it eat some food If you’re hungry and you know it, then you really ought to do it If you’re hungry and you know it eat some food. Chomp, chomp, chomp it with your teeth Chomp, chomp, chomp it with your teeth Mix it with your spit and send it down your esophagus Soon your stomach won’t feel uncomfortable. Mix it in your stomach with some acid Mix it in your stomach with some acid Then send it on its way so the small intestine may Get all the nutrients your body needs Pull out the water and the nutrients Pull out the water and the nutrients As your food moves along, through intestines small and large The end results create a nice and solid poop. Books -This is the book we read today. Although the book below is above our level, the graphics were wonderful to study and discuss. We've just finished being in potty-training mode, so had this one handy, another good preschool book to go along with this unit. Video - Magic School Bus episode For Lunch YouTube- Digestive System by KidsHealthVideos We really had a fun time on this first day of internal anatomy. We are all excited for tomorrow!
