Book excerpt: "A set of colorful, durable, easy-to-use cards with practical suggestions and activity ideas. The cards present 52 small- and large-group activities from the book of the same title in the Teacher's Idea Book Series. The activities are organized in five curriculum content areas: language, literacy and communication; mathematics; science and technology; creative arts (art and music); and physical development and health. Each activity includes step-by-step instructions and a chart to help teachers recognize and support preschoolers' learning of specific concepts and skills at early, middle, and later developmental levels."--Publisher's website.
