Calendar Time / Elementary / Preschool / Printables

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!

Safari tries to open the file in preview instead of full view which causes issues viewing and printing files. Hope that helps!

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.

  1. I just found this website a few days ago and subscribed to get email updates. I like the calendar time idea for my preschooler. I am new to homeschooling and trying to plan ahead/get organized/figure out what I’m doing now. Will you send out an email with a link for an updated one for next 2015-16 school year as that ti me gets closer? Thank you.

    1. Erica,
      I love your website and all of your resources! I would love to have your daily learning notebook for the 2015-2016 school year as well! Do you think you will be updating this? Even if you would put it in your store, I would love to buy it for my daughter to use this coming school year. Thank you for the blessing you are!

  9. Might I suggest linking the Daily Learning Notebook – preschool Version listed in Calendar Time under you Printables tab to the most recent version for the current school year rather than the original. Otherwise it is a bit of a hunt through old blog posts and that is only if you know it would be there.
