These transitional aids are used to stop the current activity. We also use a clean-up song. https://padlet.com/mlara114/pqb9tuyxabijmayv/wish/1891609229 2021-11-15 15:33:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mlara114/pqb9tuyxabijmayv/wish/1891609229 Transition song that cues students to clean up or stop an activity https://padlet.com/mlara114/pqb9tuyxabijmayv/wish/1891609580 2021-11-15 15:33:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mlara114/pqb9tuyxabijmayv/wish/1891609580 We sing, "Our room is clean, our room is clean, please come and have a seat, our room is clean." https://padlet.com/mlara114/pqb9tuyxabijmayv/wish/1891620961 We also use the locations in our classroom for cognitive shifts. It is very intentional -- The children know that when they go to the carpet, there is a shift in activities. Same with going to the stars to lineup. We also use a visual schedule as well as a min schedule -- Example: During circle time, we also have a mini schedule to show the activities within the circle time -- Example: First Star of the day, then "We Wish You Well," and then the lesson or any other parts of circle time so children are able to very clearly and cognitively understand.
