The daily morning schedule provides a balance of experiences each day. It provides a structure that helps the child feel secure and competent. The child knows what the teacher expects of him and what he can expect of the teacher:
Active/quiet play
Large group/small group/individual experiences
Indoor/outdoor play
Large muscle/small muscle activities
Child-initiated/teacher-initiated activities
