Back by popular demand is my newly updated 2013-2014 Preschool Daily Learning Notebook! I created this last year for the Teeny Tot and since she’s not quite ready for the Elementary Level Daily Learning Notebook, I made an updated one for the 2013-2014 school year.
**The updates are only to the calendar pages where they trace what day it is, and I added in the year at the top of the calendar as well, so if you already have this, you might want to just print the calendar pages to save on ink!

Supplies:
- 1” 3-ring Binder
- 3 divider tabs for numbers, letters, and shapes
- 4 page protectors
- Expo Dry-erase markers (variety of colors)
- Outdoor thermometer
Directions: Print pages 4-92 on regular copy paper. Place pages 4-11 in page protectors back to back so that these pages can be used with expo dry-erase markers and re-used. Next place the remaining pages in order in your binder. Have students use crayons, pencils, or markers to complete each day as directed in the download. (More specific instructions included in download!)
The Preschool Daily Learning Notebook includes:
- What day is it?
- Find today’s number
- Write today’s number
- Write today’s number word (I don’t always require her to do this, but added it for days when she’s on days 1-10)
I made a printable for each weekday, Monday through Friday, with traceable days on it for preschoolers. On this page she’ll trace the weekday, find today’s number and color in the circle. Trace the number (I write this in with pencil for her to trace), and then write the number word for the day. Right now I only have her do this when we’re on days one-ten.
I think her favorite activity is finding the temperature. (We have a simple thermometer right outside our front door that she checks.) Then she comes in and colors a weather appropriate outfit on her paper doll.
It also covers:
- What time is it?
- What temperature is it?
- What would I wear for this temperature?
- I can write my name (monthly name writing practice)
Each month Teeny Tot will trace the month name, then write in one number per day to fill in the calendar for each month. She’ll also color in a box for the weather. I only went to 25 on this because I figure most of us only do about 20 days per month, so I gave a few more just for you hard core homeschoolers out there! NOTE: Since she’s not ready to write the numbers on her own, I wrote them in dashed font for her to trace.
She’ll also color in one box for each day we’re in school until we get to 100! Uhem…She apparently misunderstood when I said color in ONE square…so I’ll be re-printing and we’ll try this one again!
I also added numbers, shapes, and letters to her pack. To help make them easier to find, I put in colored divider tabs so she can flip to the correct spot.
For the numbers I put lightly colored dots on each one, I plan to have her put a sticker for each dot on the numbers, then trace the number word. But you can also have them color the shape, or glue the correct amount of objects to it as well.

I am just getting started homeschooling. I have a 4 year old. We did a 3 year loosely based curriculum (that I pulled together) the past year and I’m now preparing for K-4 and I plan to buy yours. Do you suggest this Daily Learning Notebook along with your 4 yr curriculum?
I have the same question. Would we used both the K4 curriculum as well as the Daily Learning Notebook?
Thank you for all of your wonderful resources.

THANK YOU for this! I have your Letter of the Day curriculum and stumbled across this on Pinterest. My oldest is in the 2nd grade and middle child is almost 4 so both the pre-k and the elementary are wonderful for us. Thank you so much for all that you do to make homeschooling easier on the rest of us 🙂
is this the only thing you have her do each day or do you incorporate activities to supplement her lessons?I’m interested in using this!
Hello 🙂 For whatever reason I am really having a hard time getting the Pre-K Daily Learning Notebook to print. I’ve managed to print pages 1-16 3 times but I keep getting a printing error. Just wanted to make sure that everything is ok on your side of things . . .and I’ll keep trying on my side 🙂 I generally do not have a problem printing anything from your site or any other site so this one surprised me 🙂
Love these!!! Thank you for sharing them!
Wow…thank you so much for sharing. You are awesome. I am going to start this with my three year old. He is so eager to learn. 🙂
Hi there Erica, as always you idea’s and the things you put together simply take my breath away, thanks so so so so much. 🙂 🙂
My youngest and second eldest will definitely be using this next year. Thank-you so so so much. 🙂
Thank you! We have been using your Elementary notebook this week for our first week. We will add this for my little guy who is the same age as your Teeny Tot. They have grown up together! lol
