A Day At Our School – Preschool
PRESCHOOL Daily Schedule
The Sunshine daily schedule provides a basic consistent routine to meet a child’s individual needs. A good schedule offers balance between active and quiet time; large group, small group and individual activities; indoor and outdoor play and time for children to choose their own activities as well as a time for teacher-directed activities.
A daily schedule should also be flexible, and at times, spontaneous, to meet individual and group interests. All activities are developmentally appropriate. Preschool schedule includes:
Children independently select quiet activities set out on tables such as puzzles, manipulative, or art materials which emphasize fine motor skills.

Children are encouraged to collect their belongings independently.
