Daily Schedule Definitions:
Arrival/Greeting Time- Children enter the classroom at their own pace. Parents/Guardians are encouraged to stay until children are ready for them to leave. Once all children have arrived, adults share the daily announcements.
Large Group Time/Music and Movement- Adults and children participate in activities planned around children’s interests, developmental levels, music and movement, cooperative play and projects, and events meaningful to children.
Planning Time- Children indicate their plans for the day to adults in a small group setting, using a variety of strategies.
Choice Time- Children initiate activities and carry out their intentions. Children make choices about here and how to use materials. Adults participate as partners in child-initiated play and encourage children’s problem solving both with materials and during times of conflict.
Cleanup Time- Children and adults clean up together.
Recall Time- Children reflect upon, talk about, and exhibit their choice time experiences with others.
