Mrs.Hernandez's Pre-K Students
Daily Schedule
Keep regular bedtime and morning routines that mirror the experience of the school day. Sit down for lunch at approximately the same time as they would at school. Write out a daily schedule so your student knows the plan for the day. This is an opportunity to practice goal-setting, time management, and problem solving. Work with your students to help them create a schedule for themselves and set goals. A sample schedule is provided below. Use this as a starting point to provide structure to the day.
