Our Day

 

The children will have fun learning through a variety of activities and centers.  (small and large groups).  A variety of movement, music and other brain breaks are built individually, in throughout the day to help with energy and focus.  We will use the bathroom across the hall for individual bathroom visits as needed. There will also be natural bathroom breaks built into the schedule to visit the larger restrooms in the building.  Students will be washing their hands before and after snack***, lunch and recess.

The playground gets windy in the fall & spring, it is suggested to send sweater/sweatshirt for the unpredictable playground winds. 

 

Raincoats are suggested, we will be taking walks on rainy days.  Some may prefer rainboots, as there are puddles on the recess blacktop.

 

Students are most comfortable with their mittens/gloves/hats as it gets colder too.
