Sharing

Schedule is posted at the bottom

As part of our oral language program, we will be starting “sharing” in our class.  Two children each day will bring a special toy, book, picture, poem, tape, etc. to class to show the other children and tell about it.  Please no toy weapons, toys related to war or violence or pets.   Sharing starts Monday, October 6.

Please help your child describe what he/she is bringing to class (eg.  what it is, how it works, where he/she received or bought it from, etc.)  Practice at home using complete sentences, so your child will feel comfortable telling about his/her special item.  After your child has shared the item with the class, he/she will be able to answer three questions from the children in the class.  The children enjoy being the teacher and teaching us about the item.  Your child will leave his/her sharing item in the closet until sharing time.  When sharing is finished, the item will be returned to your child’s book bag or closet hook.

Your child’s sharing day is listed on the attached calendar.  Your child’s sharing day will also be your child’s day at the computer in the classroom during table toy time.  Each month on the back of the newsletter will be a monthly calendar with your child’s sharing days.  I will remind your child the day before to bring an item to share.  If your child forgets to bring in an item on his/her sharing day, your child has to wait until his/her next turn to share an item with the class.  If your child is absent on his or her sharing day, please have your child bring an item in on the day that he or she returns to school.  If you have any questions about the sharing program, please just let me know.

Thank you.
