What we do during the day
Routine is very important in classroom life. The children feel safe and confident once they get into a set routine. It helps them to be independent and know what to do and what is expected of them.
This is how we spend the day:
After the morning assembly, which is usually held in the school yard, we go upstairs to our classroom, where the children take out their HW and give it to me. During this time I usually do the daily attendance, gather any money needed for outings and answer any quick notes from parents.
Then we sing our good morning, say the morning prayer and start the first lesson which is Religion. Next lesson is Mathematics. After the mid-morning break, we start our Maltese or English lessons, according to the time-table. During these lessons we read, write, do language exercises, listen, sing, dance and talk - a lot! This part of the day is usually spent at the circle time corner in our classroom.
After the break, we continue with PE, Expressive Arts, Science, Social Studies, PSD (Personal and Social Development), Music and ICT.
As you can see, our day is full but as long as we have fun, we enjoy our day!
