Rest ("Chill") Time By Deb
|
|
I'm not sure about a state mandate, but I call my rest time "Chill" time and explain that everyone, even adults, needs some "down time" every day to "recharge" their batteries. I play CD's with educational songs such as nursery rhymes, and Dr. Jean (see drjean.org), or I put on a taped story. I explain to the parents that learning continues at this quiet time. This is a great time for strengthening phonemic awareness and listening skills. Remember, you're the professional! :-)
