We learned and practiced!

This week we reviewed our behaviors for Group Time - sitting, looking, listening and bodies still. These are important skills for learning - your children will need these same skills when they go into general education classes to learn new things, so we practice them here every day. We also practiced our routine of reading book boxes in the morning. All of the children were able to choose a box of books and sit and "read to self" for close to 15 minutes! This is also an important skill for learning, it helps build attentional skills, and it is calm and relaxing! We had time for fun and social skills during Center Time. The boys at the play dough table were able to share, talk kindly and help each other out! All in all, it was a wonderful first week of school! I hope to see many of you next Thursday at our Curriculum Night. We will meet in our room, Room 113, at 6:45.
