We’re excited to announce the release of Launch for PreK Extended School Year (ESY), an inclusive 4-week curriculum designed for early childhood students who qualify for ESY services.
This year’s theme is ‘Summer Around the United States!’ Students will have a blast traveling on a virtual road trip across the U.S., exploring different cities and engaging in region-specific learning experiences. You can follow the 4-week schedule as outlined, or adjust the order to fit your students’ needs, making the curriculum flexible and adaptable to any timeline.
📍 Week 1: Oakland, CA – Nature & Landmarks
📍 Week 2: Chicago, IL – Urban Exploration & Culture
📍 Week 3: Philadelphia, PA – History & Government
📍 Week 4: New Orleans, LA – Music & Culinary Traditions
Routines and consistency are important for all children, but especially so for our littlest learners! That’s why we built Launch for PreK ESY to mirror the classroom rhythms of the traditional school year. Launch for PreK ESY provides a seamless extension of the routines and structures teachers already know and love, including continued access to activity-based lesson plans in Hello Circle, Story Time, Fine Motor and Art, and Goodbye Circle.
Built to support progress monitoring on IEP goals and Kindergarten Readiness skill application and generalization, Launch for PreK ESY ensures continuity while keeping learning playful, purposeful, and rooted in best practices for early learners.
The first two pages of the Oakland newsletter (advanced) are shown here.
Every week includes fiction and nonfiction books from the PreK Children’s Library as well as suggested books that are commonly found in school and local libraries.
Explore xylophone water jars, snow fluff, dancing corn, and so much more!
Learn to make ice cream when traveling to Oakland!
Launch for PreK ESY is included with your existing license and remains accessible throughout your subscription – giving you both flexibility to prepare in advance and long-term value.
