Establishing the Classroom Routines in Kindergarten
Establishing classroom routines at the start of the school year is essential to creating a classroom environment in which we love participating! During the first week of school, the Kindergarten students were introduced to the routines that will support them in having a safe and positive learning experience. Here are some classroom routines that we do in our classroom.
- Morning Routine
Morning routine plays an essential role in our day. It helps the students get to know each other and sets a positive classroom environment for the day.
Kindergarten students start the morning meeting with greetings.
When the greetings are done, students will look at a presentation and be informed about what activities are scheduled that day. This presentation helps students to be prepared and more confident in learning because they know what to expect.
After the presentation, students will head to the carpet, and it is Calendar Time!
After the calendar time, it is time to sing and dance! Students will be introduced to different songs every week so they will not get bored. After dance time, students will have opportunity to go to toilet before continue to the class inquiry.
