Pre-K Curriculums

I'm doing some research on some Pre-K Curriculums that I thought would be interesting for the children. Wanted to get your feedback and if you would be interested in having your child participate. I've check out the following three programs and have the information and example package here if anyone would like to take home for one evening and check them out.

Scholastic Clifford the Big Red Dog
Your subscription to this includes:
Learn Along magazine

• Each child gets 2 issues a month to practice early reading skills
• Repetitive, predictable text increases fluency and sight word recognition
• Numbered and colored boxes make it easy for children to follow along with Big Issues

Learn Along Activity Pages

• Writing features let you model how to write as children dictate sentences
• Skill building activities teach counting, matching, rhyming and more

Teacher Receives

• Complete lesson plans
• Extension activities that expand on each issue's theme
• Creative ways to meet the requirements of the No Child Left Behind Act

The cost of this would be $4.95 per child a month. The first month is Free.

FunShine Express Early Leaning Curriculums
The Fireflies Curriculum is paced with daily activity ideas that address every area of development. Adaptable for ages 2-5. Once a month there is included a starter pack materials, monthly teacher pack and monthly children's resources i.e. 12 prepackaged art activities, the parent express monthly newsletter, weekly family notes, 3 letter practice sheet, 2-3 number practice sheets, 4 enrichment activity sheets and online extras.

Currently they are offering a sample kit for $19.99 (4 weeks of supplies for 4 children, not month specific). That would come to about $8 per child (including shipping and handling).

After that a monthly kit for the whole group would be approximately $10 a month. Big discounts if we order several months in advance

High Reach Learning Curriculum

Has age appropriate monthly materials broken down into the following Curriculums

Toddlers, Twos, Threes, and Pre-K and Passports: Experiences for Pre-K Success

There is much to this program it's best to check out the catalog. Pricing is based on your child's curriculum and may be more expensive than Funshine if everyone chooses different kits.
