Preschool Magazines
There are many magazines out there for preschool children and it can be hard to find one thats are specific to these three specific aspects of a young child's learning and development.

The first Magazine that I came across that I really liked was called Chirp Magazine. This is a magazine for 3-6 year old children and it is filled with stories, activities, arts, crafts, and so much fun. This magazine would be great for social studies and expressive arts because it includes activities that help children to explore what they are interested in, like cooking and crafts, that will help them to explore and develop who they are as a person. They also explore different friendships and places, like outer space, in the magazines as well, making it a

I would have them read the magazine over together (look at magazines mostly), then pick one activity they wanted to do from the magazine together. Of course I would be prepared for the activities as well. I might say pick from these three or these two. If its a big activity we could do it as a class.
The second magazine that I found was High Five, which is a Highlights magazine but for preschool students. This magazine has much of what the previous magazine has, but they are different yet just as engaging. There are puzzles, stories, recipes, easy crafts and reading that can be done with a parent or adult. I think that this magazine encourages all three aspects of social studies, expressive arts, and motor development through the activities and other neat things that the magazine includes.
Activity: This magazine I would go over as a class in a preschool or kindergarten classroom. I would read the stories in the magazine together as a class and then do a cooking activity together as well. This will get students working together to create their own food and interacting in a way that promotes

    I would do an activity like this after checking for prior knowledge (a story about zoo animals or a field trip to the zoo). In addition to open-ended questions and guessing games, I play the “Memory game.” First we look at all the pictures (starting with about twenty cards or ten mates). Then we place the cards face down and I model by picking up a card and turning it over. Then I turn over another and then the first child follows what I modeled. The children really enjoy this game. Their memory starts kicking in once I turn over quite a few…

    Books; are a great way of expressing themselves and letting everyone know their interests. You can usually find books of interest to everyone as most groups have a wide and varied range of books. If a child says one word per page e.g. “car” then you could say “blue car” so you are adding one more word than they are saying, this encourages the child to add another word when talking.…

    To promote cognitive development, I will provide activities and materials to develop children's curiosity, problem solving and reasoning skills. I will provide a time in our daily schedule for exploring our manipulative cabinet where there are puzzles, magnets, gears, colored counting cubes and blocks. When reading stories I will ask open-ended questions and allow time for discussion. During circle time we will sing many fun songs about the letters of the alphabet and days of the week. Every other week we go to the library and have the librarian read to us. For the child with special needs I will have pencil holders and give extra time to complete their projects.…

    As I reflect back on my early childhood experiences, the one positive thing that I can remember about my experience in kindergarten would be how the teacher would set with me alone and help me with my alphabet. I was having such a hard time trying to remember them, but my teacher would always take out some extra time for me to help me with learning the correct order of the alphabets.…
