I love this post by my friend Jill @ Kinder Friends Learning. I want to do this in my class this year! Kinder Friends Learning: Child Care Land : "Have you discovered Child Care Land ( www.childcareland.com )? If you haven't, you are missing out! They some great ideas and best of all, ..."
I am soooooo excited! I get to go to Boulder, Colorado to see the Journey School which is closely tied to the Reggio Emilia, Italy school! I can not wait to get fresh ideas to implement into my pre-k classroom. Fund for Teachers gave a grant for 6 of us to go (maybe 8?) and I was asked if I wanted to go - of course the answer was YES! More to come as time gets closer....
We have three Pre-K teachers at my school and since our classrooms are all together, we share centers. Half of our class goes outside while the other half is in center explorations. We do not have a center rotation, but we allow the children to move freely between all three classrooms choosing their center and which classroom they wish to play in during center time. It is a little hectic at first, but absolutely worth it later in the year when we are working with children at centers individually and the other children are fully engaged in their "work".
