Relaxed Friday Schedules

Another Friday Fun Post Comin' At Ya!

By now we have been playing board games on a Friday for a while now. My Friday lesson plan have turned into a lot of fun.  This group of students are not used to full weeks at school.  

It's true! 4K they learned at home (1/2 days before COVID hit).  Kindergarten our district had "cleaning days" once a month.  That was a four-day week, along with their normal days off for PD days.  There are many months they only have two, five-day weeks.  This year has been long for them and you can tell by their attention spans and effort level on a Friday isn't the same as the other days. 

Our Friday schedule looks like this: 

SNACK,

NUMBER CORNER,

READ ALOUD WITH ART ACTIVITY

READING GROUPS

RECESS

EXTRA GYM TIME

LUNCH

RECESS

BOARD GAMES

MATH WORK PLACES

SPECIAL

You see that is very relaxed. The student don't realize the social and emotional learning that is going on in the classroom.  But they don't have to, they can just have fun!!
