What will my child be doing in a typical Head Start to Reading class?
Classes are designed with 4 and 5 year olds in mind so everything we do is activity based! Worksheets are not used in Head Start to Reading. Class times are only 55 minutes long to fit most children’s attention spans. We usually start our class time with a short table top activity until everyone arrives. We then move to the floor for 10-15 minutes to learn our new words. Next we go to the table to do a short learning activity such as making a book with our new words or playing a game to practice our words. At the end of our session we go back to the floor to review what we learned and play another learning game!
