For those of you who couldn't make orientation, here is a virtual tour of the classroom!
This is what you will see when you walk in to the classroom.
On the left is the water bottle station. When you arrive every day, take your water and put it here so you can grab it whenever you're thirsty.
You will also have a shared cubby. This is where you put your backpack and lunch box for now. Don't forget to pack a raw fruit or vegetable for snack!
Behind this door is a bathroom for our class.
This big rainbow table is where I do a lot of my teaching. I help kids learn in a lot of fun ways in small groups of 3-4 kids at a time. You will learn more about this later.
This is the block area. Here is where you can build, pretend, work together, and communicate with each other. This is also where we have our class meeting times.
This is the small group space. This is where kids can practice teaching each other, learn together, work by themselves, and play games. Here you can practice collaboration and independent learning.
For now this is the drawing table. After some time this will become the writing table. Right now you can draw, write, and create.
This is the reading space. This is a quieter space where you can get comfortable with a good book. Right now there aren't too many books on the shelf, but this area grows and grows as time goes on.
This is the table where we have iPads. Those won't be ready for a few days, but for now we can use the table to build on!
This is our sensory table. Sometimes you just need a break and this is a great place to take it.
I hope you like the tour and I can't wait to start my days with you!
