B. The Daily Program

When the children enter the classroom in the morning they are greeted by a teacher, asked to wash their hands and then encouraged to get involved in various activities which have been set up to allow for easy transitioning. During classroom exploration morning snack will be open for children. After meeting time and a nutritious snack, the children are given the freedom to explore the various learning activities and interest centers that have been prepared for them by the teachers and students in the high school‘s Early Education & Teaching Program. These centers are changed from week to week, day to day and sometimes hour to hour. Manipulative, collage materials, blocks and books are some of the activities open during classroom exploration. Morning meeting will be our formal start of the day where themes will be expanded upon. During center time, numerous centers and activities are offered to allow children the opportunity to choose what interests them. This time also allows for integration projects to take place with various departments and programs within the high school. A teacher is always nearby to expand learning by asking questions, offering challenging statements or making suggestions in keeping with each particular child‘s current level of achievement, interest, ability and needs. There are periods of quiet and relaxation, during rest time.
