I love the shift of themes. I can’t wait to print some of these printables later this week ❤

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

Thank you!

[@jenscloset]

Some fun ideas, thank you!

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

You're welcome!

I love how you teach this amazing topic, and how you set up the classroom. Thank you for sharing your free printable; these printable are always so helpful.
Before the kids are playing in differents areas; do you set up some rules (how to use the toys, the materials)?, I ask you this question because in my classroom some kids dont know how to play, o share toys o material with their peers. Thank you very much, muchas gracias 🙏💖

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

Thank you! With this young age group I usually address situations as they happen. I can then model and redirect.

How long do your themes last until you switch to a new theme?

[@Teaching2and3YearOlds]

Usually 2 weeks.
