How Teachers Use Themes Teachers develop themes based on their children’s ages and interests. While the descriptions that follow show the basic idea behind a week’s theme, activities vary. All themes include stories, arts and crafts, outdoor and indoor activities, creativity, action, and fun! In the older grades, teachers integrate reading, writing, research, and math into the program. “Learning while doing” is the key to great days and delightful times. Teachers send notes home on Fridays that describe the week’s activities and give a preview of what’s ahead.
