週に1回、海の下でサークルタイム

Let's put on our scuba gear and go for a deep-sea dive into circle time!  We will begin circle time with a class song and a time to share.  During sharing time, learners can bring a toy, stuffed animal, or anything they would like to share with the class.  We will learn all about the calendar, including days of the week, months of the year, the date, and the weather.  A special sea animal will visit the classroom introducing some of the learning elements, including geography and simple science concepts (such as mammals versus fish). Learners can take turns asking questions, engaging in conversation, and learning about the sea animal.  The sea animal will bring a letter, shape, and color, and we will play a game to learn about them.  We will have a short storytime at the end of class.  

Below is a description of the class each week:
