Or whatever you want to call them (domains, etc).
Which ones do you make sure to work into your curriculum, and with what frequency--do you have a different gross motor skill/activity every day, or one a week, or...?

Within whatever "theme" we have for the week:
Daily we work on:
Language/Literacy - is probably the largest component of my curriculum. Reading books. Expanding vocabulary, rhyming, opposites, etc.
ABCs- depending on age - letter recognition, handwriting (I use Handwriting Without Tears), phonics, pre-reading activities, etc
123s - depending on age - pre-math, number recognition, one-to-one correspondence, counting, patterning, sets, adding/subtracting, estimating, etc.
Color of the Month Activity - often done thru art
Free Art Activity
Craft Activity
Music Time
Gross Motor - focus changes weekly
Fine Motor - focus changes monthly (I use Handy Learning)
Weekly We Have at Least One Component in:
Science/Nature
My World - Community, Social Studies
Kitchen Creation
Hope that helps
