Teachers' Corner

Five printable sheets for the adult who prepares the room. Week and month numbers are a planning order, not a timetable for the children.

All teacher sheets
  1. Observation notes A weekly sheet for one child: free choice, repetition, concentration, and the presentation to give next.
  2. Weekly shelf planner One week of practical life, sensorial, language, math, and culture. Note what was repeated, what was ignored, and the one change to make.
  3. Practical life plan A shelf sequence for pouring, wiping, care of the person, and food preparation. Week numbers are the adult’s planning order, not the children’s timetable.
  4. Grace and courtesy cards Eight short presentations for a 3–6 room, from greeting a person to repairing a mistake.
  5. Monthly rhythm calendar A month for the work cycle, courtesy, and care of the room. It plans the adult’s rhythm, not a script for the children.
