- Chosen at random each morning by drawing a stick with students' names on them
- Leads/teaches calendar

Sharing also starts next week and it looks like this...
- Children are assigned sharing days which will stay the same until after Spring Break approximately (at that point, a new routine will be posted)
- On these days they can bring an item from home to share with the class
- This gives them the opportunity to talk about the things they love, the characteristics of objects, and have the experience of talking to a group of people.
- Please encourage your children to bring things that teach us something about them or teach us something in general.
- Examples would include, pictures of themselves or family, favourite book, a piece of art they created, an award or uniform from special activities, momento from a vacations, collections, and showcasing a talent (ballet moves, instrument they play, etc.). Some of the most interesting sharing items I have seen over the years included found items like giant leaves, a rock in the shape of a heart, pinecones, shells, and non fiction books - the children LOVE to see this type of thing and it brings about all sorts of incidental learning.
The sharing schedule will be as follows:
Mondays - Lily, Katelyn, Adam, Isla
Tuesdays - Ciaran, Rylee, Quinn, Zoe
Wednesdays - Gabrielle, Gabriela, Nate, Lexi
Thursdays - Kai, Jack, Johnny, Cameron
Fridays - Kiera, Alisa, Eli, Sascha
If your child misses their sharing day due to illness, vacation, or forgetfulness, they can share the following day or wait for their next sharing day.
