Plan a Toddle Unit — Cheat Sheet
This cheat sheet follows the four steps in Video 1 to create a Unit Plan.
Step 1. Basic Details
a) Title and Subject/s
b) Unit Overview: private to you and Admin
c) Shareable Unit Summary: parents can see this
Step 2. Identify Curriculum
a) Subject Standards: choose the standards/descriptors covered in this unit
b) Skills: select skills students will use
c) Learner Profile: choose one: Reflective, Relational, Resilient, Resourceful, (5R school values)
d) Biblical Worldview: choose one: Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration
Step 3. Plan Assessment
a) Formative: title & standard code/s
b) Summative: title & standard code/s
For example –
Task 1: Paint a Monet pond & add a frog – VA1
Task 2: Sculpt a clay frog with pinch pot – VA4
Step 4. Plan Learning Experiences (LE)
a) Prior Learning
Write a short statement of prior knowledge related to the unit

Task 2: Frog Sculpture – VA8E02, VA8C01
Walt: Shape/transform clay into form. Wilf: Sculpt realistic 3D frog.
