Early Days: Activities to Introduce Formal Learning (Ages 4-6)

Teaching a new intake of students beginning formal school is a challenging and rewarding experience, though often hectic. This collection of blackline masters has been compiled to assist the busy teacher of such a class.

The worksheets have a clear, uncluttered layout and follow a 'school theme' which will appeal to early years' students. Many of the sheets are maths-and language-based and are ideal for use when introducing a new skill or reinforcing and consolidating those already introduced. Other sheets provide worthwhile activities which are relevant throughout the curriculum and make learning fun for active minds.
