Basic Daily Schedule

    We enjoy a large physical plant where many toys, games and puzzles can be stored.  These items are rotated among the classrooms on a weekly basis.
 
9:00 – 9:30      Free Play       This is the time where your child can choose an
                                                 activity that they like best.  They learn to share,
                                                 wait their turn, transition, and play with others.

9:30 – 10:00    Circle Time    The class will be led by the “snack star” in a
                                                  discussion of  the calendar, the weather and the
                                                  daily theme.   A story and discussion of today’s
                                                   theme will follow.
 
10:00 – 10:20  Snack time/ Bathroom Break

                                                  Following the blessing, a snack is enjoyed by the
                                                  preschoolers.  "Snack stars" provide the snack for their
                                                  classmates.
 
10:20 – 10:35  Music Time    Singing and dance/free movement.   This is
                                                  designed to develop large motor skills.
 
10:40 – 11:25 Centers            The class is divided into small groups.  
                                                  Each group rotates from the Academic center
                                                  with the Teacher, a Craft center with the
                                                  Assistant, and to an Independent center.   We
                                                  allow for 15 min. at each station.  

11:25 – 11:30  Wrap Up        This is a time for the Teacher to inform you of
                                                  the happenings of the day, and to help you to
                                                  follow through at home.
 
Outside Play:    We try to reserve 10 minutes every day (weather permitting) to take the class outside for a recess time.
