12-12:15 Welcome! – We will get ready to learn by putting away our personal belongings and gathering together as a class to talk about the weather, sing songs, share, and introduce themes.

12:15-12:35 Let’s Sing & Dance! – As a certified Music & Movement teacher, I will incorporate song and dance into the beginning of each day. This helps warm up our bodies and minds, and helps us get ready to play! We will explore different instruments and ways to make music together.

12:35-1:50 Self-Selected Stations & Indoor/Outdoor Play – Here, children will be free to choose between indoor and outdoor activities, each set up to encourage different aspects of a child’s development, including gross motor skills, pre-writing, fine motor skills, pro-social interaction, artistic expression, and pre-math skills.

1:50-2:05 Snack – Each day, we will wash our hands and then gather together as a class to prepare snack and eat together before returning to learning and play.

2:05-2:20 Circle Time – After snack, we will meet back together as a group to further explore our theme, read stories, and build upon our learning together in fun ways!

2:20-2:35 Small Groups – We will break into class sections, one per to read, explore, create, and play in one more setting before we finish our preschool day.

2:35-2:45 Pack Up – Children will learn important skills, like how to put on jackets and backpacks. Depending on weather, we will sing and play inside until parents arrive, or use this time to play outside a little more!
