About this title

Synopsis

Teaching Terrific 5's opens up a world of "tried and tested" learning activities for your "Terrific Five" to discover and explore. This activity book is designed to assist early childhood educators in implementing literacy and other developmentally appropriate cognitive, social and emotional, as well as fine and gross motor activities, and self-help skills. In a typical preschool class, there will be 5-year-olds at several different levels of development. It is important for the preschool teacher to provide activities that meet the needs of all children, that all children can accomplish with success, and that can help to move them to higher levels of development. Each activity in the book has been "tried and tested" by colleagues who teach in a Pre-K five program. You will enjoy seeing the delight in these young learners as they embark on a fascinating, wondrous stage of development.
