Morning Routine in Kitah Gimmel

I am so pleased with how competent the children in our classroom are.  Each morning they follow our routine so easily and happily.  What makes me most proud is that it was not always so.  This is somewhat of a milestone for us as a group, so I would like to share. 



The children know their name and their cubby space and eagerly put their lunch and/or backpack away.




The children take on and off their coats with a lot of effort, sometimes all by themselves and sometimes with help.



The children "sign in" establishing that they are "here".  They find their picture and match it to their printed name.  (Asher is showing Sholom and Jonah that he has" a letter like e but its not")




Some children then go to look at the message of  the day, I guess the excitement of wondering what it might say?



And some of us go straight to getting busy exercising our little fingers or any of the other many activities set out for us to work with.



Sometimes children even get the opportunity to practice having patience (and chatting with a friend) while waiting for a turn at an activity.
