BENEFITS OF THEME-BASED
"As an early childcare educator, I love theme-based learning. I follow the interests of the children and together we choose theme based activities that they want to explore. One month we may be learning about bugs and insects, and the next we could be deep in the world of dinosaurs or hurtling through space as we learn about the solar system."
When planning a curriculum that follows children’s interests, it helps to have a good selection of activity ideas that you can quickly put together. Activities that are age appropriate and which include a broad range of learning areas.
Theme-based learning is a fun way for children to learn and explore new topics. Choose whether you want to change themes each month, or whether you simply want to collect our planners and create a library for yourself. Whatever your preference, you'll be able to access a variety of fun and engaging activities to introduce children to, and extend on their interests.
There are so many educational benefits from following a theme-based curriculum, especially as it provides an integrated approach to teaching which allows children to engage in purposeful and relevant learning.
