Language development is an extremely important skill for the students in my classroom. The Circle Time Calendar and All About Today centers will bring together the letters, numbers, and shapes for the day, along with talking points about the weather, seasons, and events of the week. The Circle Time Calendar and All About Today center will become the focal point of my large group rug, providing opportunities for my students to build on their thinking and speaking skills. Not only will they be able to talk about today, tomorrow and yesterday, but they will have the opportunity to think and talk about their school environment, special events and holidays, and other topics that pertain to their world.
