With the beginning of the school year upon us, I wanted to do an All About Me theme. We will focus on name recognition, body parts, and all the facts about ourselves. If you are looking for activities about the five senses or feelings, I already have weekly themes dedicated to those topics for you to check out. Lastly, I have marked some of the activities with an * because they are from a free printable pack. You will need to download the pack and scroll through to find the activity (I do not use the entire pack, only a few of the activities. You are more than welcome to use more of the activities from the pack if you want.)
NOTE: Some of the activity links go straight to a pin on Pinterest instead of a blog page. Read the description of the pin for the activity instructions. If you are new here, make sure to check out the Themed Curriculum page for more details about how to use this curriculum. Looking for a different theme? Check out all of our themes here.
As we go through this week’s activities together make sure to use #KL4LAllAboutMe and @kidslearningforlife to share the activities you do! Don’t forget to follow me on Facebook or Instagram to see me doing the activities with my own kids!
