Getting organised...

I decided to get better organised with Lola’s monthly Í Can Do’ theme’s...
I wrote a list of the remaining months of the year and then next to each month wrote down a theme I want to explore with Lola.

The list is ~
March – Bears
April – Colours
May – Under the Sea
June – Bugs
July – Australian Animals
August – Trees and Flowers
September – Sun, Moon and Stars
October – My Five Senses
November – Dinosaurs
December – Christmas

I then made up a cover sheet for my Í can do... learn and play activities’ file.



I also made up ten label cards for each month and theme, laminated them and put each one in a seperate pocket of the folder.



So all is left is for me to think of and find different activities/ideas for each theme, write or print them out and file them in the theme pocket, ready to use. It will also be a great reference tool for when Molly is ready to start these type of activities.



So I have been thinking what are some other fun to learn themes I can use – feel free to put your ideas in the comments section.

You're so organised it's giving me a headache. Wait maybe that's my headcold!?
As for ideas I think Days of Creation is a good one to start remembering. ACE talk about them alot in the early years, so good to get them down pat. You could do seasons, but there are only 2 where you live so that could be hard, lol.
