OUR DAILY SCHEDULE

My schedule is "child-driven" in that if the children wish to do something for more for 15 mins (such as sing some more or read some more), I will work that in to the day. During 'free play' the children may be read to or dance/listen to some music. Primarily, they work on their social skills while also being engaged in learning activities (colors, shapes etc). What follows is a VERY loose schedule-- it is only a blueprint-- what actually occurs may be quite different. The following schedule goes up to 8:30 p.m. which is bedtime in my home.
