Mighty Minutes? Focusing on Objectives for Development & Learning

This document lists the Mighty Minutes? by their primary objectives for development and learning. Its purpose is to give teachers a resource for determining which Mighty Minutes? activities to use when they want to focus on particular objectives. It is important to note that each Mighty Minutes? activity meets more than one objective for development and learning. The Mighty Minutes? cards also show additional objectives related to the activities. Some objectives are not addressed by Mighty Minutes? activities, but they are addressed directly by other resources of The Creative Curriculum? for Preschool. Detailed information about these objectives can be found in The Creative Curriculum? for Preschool, Sixth Edition, Volume 6: Objectives for Development & Learning.
