3 4 Year Old Pre Lesson Plan

Activity Talk and discuss with children the differences between natural and non-natural (man-made) objects. Questions that the educator should ask are: What are natural objects made from? What are man made objects made from? Where do man-made objects come from? Why do you think that? Educators should have several example of each type. Make sure that you include everyone in the discussion as it is a good talking point for other activities and lesson plans for the future, and a schema is helpful to have.

This pre lesson plan is designed to give children a schema of natural and man-made objects. This will be helpful for the Lesson Plan and for future activities involving natural or non natural materials.
