This is a rough idea of our daily schedule. We have both a picture and
written schedule posted in our classroom so that the children know when
different activities will occur. Every child also has his/her own paper copy
of the daily schedule. As an activity is finished, the picture and word cards
are flipped over and the children color the corresponding picture on their
paper schedule. This way, they can judge what activity will be next.
Our Specialist schedule is as follows:
Monday - Music with Mrs. Wellman
