For those of you that do a play based curriculum and follow the lead of the children do have any sort of rough schedule or just wing it 100%?
I'm trying to move toward a more play based curriculum but think it may help ME a bit to have broad monthly themes I could at least get books from the library for the month and maybe plan a few little fun activities for each month ahead of time. Then I can just let the kids web off the monthly theme and take it their own direction.
I think it would also allow me to give something to the parents this summer so they'd have a bit of an idea of what we would be discussing each month. I could then plan to focus on a couple of letters each month and add those to the yearly "plan".
