Storytime Theme: Hearing

This is the next lesson plan in a five-part series for preschoolers to learn more about their five senses! Combining fiction and nonfiction titles, kids will learn about their ears and hearing, things that are quiet and loud, and great words for sound effects! Plus, there are a handful of songs, rhymes, crafts, and activities to round out the lesson plan or to extend learning beyond the books.



This would also make a great lesson plan for a simple STEM program for preschoolers at a PreK classroom, library, or at home. Combine this lesson plan with a few science “experiments” using your ears for a complete program.
