RIC-20937 Early years Fairytales - Gingerbread Man

Teachers notes
The format of this series of books
This series of books is designed to cater for early childhood teachers who use learning centres and cross-curricular activities as
a basis for planning activities to develop key concepts and skills. Teachers will easily be able to locate activity-based learning
within this complete compilation of ideas.
All of the five themes within each book follow the same format over 20 pages. Each theme consists of:
1. A title or cover page with
appropriate artwork which the
teacher can utilise for themebased
activities.
2. A number of pages of cross-curricular learning activities to develop the
theme. Those themes which relate closely to a specific learning area may
have more activities in key learning areas such as science. All themes
have activities which are predominantly ‘hands-on’.
3. Background information with useful facts about the theme.
4. A list of concepts to be developed provides suggested developmentallyappropriate
learning outcomes to be achieved by completing the theme.
