Kindergarten
Long Range Plans
Thanks for your download!
Fosnot’s Counting &
Due to several requests, I have included free long range plans from a kindergarten class.
I hope you can find it useful or as a potential guide to start planning your school year as every
Quantity in Kindergarten
class is different and everyone's teaching style is different too! Be flexible, change up what you
need to suit your students needs as it is appropriate for your class and your teaching style.
What is included?
1. An editable PowerPoint presentation for you to tweak to your own needs
2. A .pdf document with an example year included
Plan columns per month include:
• Literacy concepts
• Reading Skills
• Sight words per week - these are often based upon the letter of the week for consistency
within the week.
• Letters/sounds for each week
• Writing concepts - potential thematic themes included
• General Math Concepts
• Number Sense Concepts – so students always have a number sense focus and have skills
taught in a way that build upon each other
