Sometimes I will read a story before music while children finish snack. One parent will stay behind to clean. (wash tables and do a quick sweep!!)
After cleaning please join music.
Participate and encourage children to participate.
One parent at bathrooms. One parent at coats.Help children with coats and outside clothing. Encourage Independence!!!
QUIET IN HALL!!!
I will pair children with a partner. Children will hold hands the whole way (except on stairs if it is too hard for some).
We walk to end of driveway. Stop. Look to the left, Look to the right. I am usually at the beginning of the line. I like to have one parent at the very end of the line (behind ALL children), and one parent in the middle of the line.
One parent at swings and one at large slide/monkey bars. Parents should still be looking at the whole playground and counting frequently. I try to float around the playground to all areas.
We join on rug I start a story as children hang up their coats and get settled. Parents can assist children in finding their hooks and making sure all things are hung up (this is an especially huge job in the winter months!) One parent can help with hand washing while the other brings the lunch boxes to the tile area and helps children find seat. Children wait for all of their friends to sit as well!
Please bring a lunch and sit with the children. Engage in conversation (talk about daily activities, weather, weekend fun, etc.) Remind children to stay in seats until their friends are finished
Children pack up with assistance from adults if needed!! Dismissed one at a time to free play areas.
IT IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO KEEP ADULT CONVERSATION TO A MINUMUM.
