Guest Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Hello All First posting to I hope someone is out there listening! We are trying to revamp our CIA and give it a bit more pep and direction and we want to change its name. We currently call it 'Choosing time' but would like a name that reflected the independent learning aspect of the activity. Any suggestions? Thanks Wilf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 hi Wilf Yes -out here and listening! Really like the idea of a new namee but no inspiration yet I'm afraid. We use 'busy time', and say to the children 'Let's get busy' but that doesn't meet your needs I'm afraid - will keep thinking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I've been thinking the same, hate using 'choosing' at the mo. What about Sparkle time? Dazzle time? Where the children sparkle/ dazzle you with their independent learning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 We call ours busy board time, we have a board in the classroom where we put photos or pictures of the areas or activities available that week as a reminder to them. We plan this together on a Thursday the week before with the children. Things get added and taken away from the 'busy board' as children think of them/ lose interest.
