I am so excited to share our Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site Preschool Curriculum! This 2 week unit will begin on October 10th and is the fourth book of our preschool curriculum that we will be using for the 2016-2017 year. Over the course of a school year, we will be exploring some of the most well-loved children’s books out there. Head over and read a detailed explanation of our Free Preschool Curriculum if you haven’t gotten the chance to yet!
Everything that you could possibly need to know to participate with us is written in the Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site Unit Study file, which can be downloaded for free at the end of this post. It also contains over 20 pages of printable activities. There are a ton of helpful tips about preparing the materials located in our Preschool Overview. You can also find a list of our color printer, laminator, etc on that page.
Finally, below are the Supplies + Resources for the Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site unit:

Below is the Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site Unit Study file, which contains the activities and printables that we will be using. Additional instructions and optional activities can be found on the Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site Pinterest Board and in the following video. Typing out details + prep is not only EXTREMELY time consuming, I’ve found that a bunch of parents are still confused. As a creative solution, I wanted to try posting a video instead, since sometimes a visual explanation is the clearest!
If you have any questions, please leave them below or contact me. If you enjoy using our curriculum and you have a desire to say thank you, send me an email or a cup of coffee! Our resources will always remain free, but I love getting feedback and hearing about the ways in which our curriculum has blessed other families. We are so excited and hope to have you join us on October 10th!
