TYPICAL DAILY SCHEDULE

We spend half of our time outdoors everyday,

no matter what the weather! We have a daily schedule with routines, but we are able to have the freedom to veer off from our schedule if something fun, exciting, and educational comes up.

Indoor Centers Time

During centers time, students work in small groups, in pairs, and independently in different areas of the classroom. They may choose which center to visit most of the time. However, teachers may also call students over to work with them or assign students to a particular center when needed. At RVFS, most of our centers coordinate with the theme of the week that go with the letter of the week. Also, our teachers make sure centers have different activities during the week to keep children engaged, and focus on needed skills.

Examples of centers in the classroom:
