My Project

Circle time is a very important time in the preschool classroom. This time provides opportunities for listening, promoting oral communication, and learning new concepts and skills by using whole group instruction.

The focal point at circle time is the dry-erase board.

My class needs a board that is wide enough to hold materials and visual aides used during my lessons. During the morning meeting, I will model writing on the board with the "message of the day" which is rich with opportunities for practicing language arts skills. Students will observe and imitate these skills
