Build a reusable library of activities. Drop them onto each room’s week. Let teachers open the schedule with materials, notes, and standards already attached.
Three layers, one workflow — from a reusable activity, to a weekly room plan, to the schedule teachers open in the morning.
Open Learning Activities and add a new one with structured fields: name, duration, indoor/outdoor, age bracket, skills, materials, description, attachment, and teacher notes. It lives in your library forever.
Open Create Weekly Learning Plan, give the week a name (“Letter L Week” or “Paper Plane”), and Post Activity onto each day Monday through Friday from your library.
The plan flows into the Scheduled Plans calendar that teachers open during the day. Everyone sees what’s next, with the materials, notes, and attachments already in place.
Not a generic LMS, not a content library you can’t edit. Every field on the Create Activity form earns its keep at planning time and at teaching time.
What it’s called and how long it takes. Sounds basic — but it powers the schedule view that tells teachers what’s next.
Tag every activity by setting. Filter the library when it’s raining and you need three indoor backups by 9 AM.
From–to range so the toddler-room activity surfaces for the toddler room. No accidental misfits, no infants given a Pre-K worksheet.
Multi-tag fine motor, literacy, sensory, social-emotional — or any custom skill via + Add Skill. Search the library by skill at planning time.
List the materials needed and describe the activity itself. So a substitute teacher running it cold has everything spelled out, not in someone’s head.
Drop a 5 MB image (the craft sample, the worksheet, the flashcard layout). Plus Teacher Notes — staff-only prep tips that don’t go to parents.
The Create Activity form fills out everything a teacher running it for the first time would want to know. Eight structured fields — one per data point — not a mystery free-text box that the lead teacher writes in shorthand.
Every activity you create lands in the library. Filter by age bracket, by skill, by indoor/outdoor. The activities a director added two years ago are still there for the new teacher who started yesterday.
Open Learning Plans → Create Weekly Learning Plan, give the week a name, then Post Activity onto each day Monday through Friday from your library. Save it — the plan is reusable next time the same theme rolls around.
Once Learning Plans are saved, they flow into Scheduled Plans — one calendar view across every room. Teachers see what’s next today, materials and notes already attached. Admins see the whole center at a glance.
Most centers run lesson planning in a Word doc, a printed binder, and the lead teacher’s memory. Learning replaces all three.
Three layers. Learning Activities is your reusable library — each activity has a name, duration, indoor/outdoor, age bracket in months, skills, materials, description, attachments, and teacher notes. Learning Plans are weekly plans you assemble for a specific room (Toddlers, Preschool, etc.) by dropping activities onto days. Scheduled Plans is the calendar view that shows what’s actually being taught across all rooms this week. You build the activity once and reuse it forever.
Open Learning → Learning Activities → Create Activity. Fill in Activity Name, Duration in minutes, Indoor or Outdoor, Age Bracket from-to in months, Skills (with +Add Skill for any custom skill), Materials Required, Description, Attachments (image up to 5 MB), and Teacher Notes. Hit Create Activity and it lands in your library, ready to drop into next week’s plan for any room that fits the age bracket.
Every activity is tagged with a from–to range in months (e.g. 24–36). When you build a Learning Plan for a room, the activities that match that room’s age range surface first — so a toddler-room activity doesn’t end up in the infant room by accident.
Yes. The Skills field is open-ended — use the + Add Skill button to add anything from “fine motor” or “literacy” to a domain-specific skill your framework calls out. Skills make it easier to find the right activity later and to report on the breadth of what was taught.
Open Learning Plans → Create Weekly Learning Plan, give the week a name (e.g. “Letter L Week” or “Paper Plane”), and Post Activity onto each day Monday through Friday from your activity library. Save the plan and it flows into Scheduled Plans, which is what teachers (and admins) actually open during the day to see what’s next. Plans are reusable — pull the same Letter L Week back in next year.
Yes — every activity has an Attachments field for an image up to 5 MB (think: a picture of the craft sample, a worksheet, a flash-card layout). The attachment travels with the activity, so the teacher who runs it next year sees the same reference you did.
Yes. Description is for the activity itself (what the kids are doing). Teacher Notes is for the adult running it — “keep the cups capped, set up the easels before circle time, watch out for the sand bin spilling.” The two are separate fields so you can tell parents the activity was “sensory bin exploration” while telling the teacher “prep the bin during nap.”
Yes. Frameworks support is built in so the activities you create and the plans you build can map to your state’s early-learning standards or your curriculum framework. Useful for licensing visits and powerful for parents who want to see how playtime ladders up to learning outcomes. See Communications for how the activity log shows up in the parent feed.
Open MyKidReports free, build your first Learning Activity, drop it into next week’s plan, and watch it surface in the Scheduled Plans calendar your teachers open every morning.
