Celebrating our 5th birthday in the classroom! 
Completing a leader job.
One of the many jobs when a child is the leader
is that they slide over the schedule card
when we complete an activity. The picture
schedule card helps children to prepare & plan.
Science: We recorded the weather outside
our classroom for five days.
When we have a birthday, every child contributes
a page to a class Happy Birthday Book.
The birthday child picks a book title that interests them from a basket of books. They are also given a crown, a birthday card and large sticker.
They select a bracelet & birthday pencil.

Happy 6th Birthday!
