Chinese First

From 7:30 to 4:00pm 8.5 hours= $64

Sister Chinese school they have 31 kids yet they structure it so during center time they have smaller groups. Early birds come from 8:00-2:15 and later kids come 9:20-3:30. The advantages is during reading group times they have about 10-15 kids each time.

His stations because of design and student numbers were very pleasant. The standing centers allow the students to not only work standing but facilitate smooth transitions.  Again, he only has about 11 kids.

Flash cards
White board and Dominoes Math
Color pattern blocks

Other fun math games include:

Cover and guess  11

6 + ? = 11

Toss and write

On board draw a circle. Then toss some counters into the circle. Students write the number inside the circles. 7+ 4 outside the circle = 11


Teachers who have lived here just get centers so so much better!

Dear W

I love how when your sis is misbehaving and you tell me to give her a count down...1.2.3 or if she still do it. You want her to go to time out.
