Presentation
Directress invites all the children to sit on a chair, listen and watch carefully. Directress then explains the definition and steps of a work cycle:
Step 1: Child may select a material to work with. Take it from the shelf and select a place to work, either on the table or the floor, then go get a floor mat and lay it down on the floor. If it is on the table, then lay the felt cloth on the table.
Step 2: Work on the materials in the working area.
Step 3: When completed, remind the child to take the materials back to its place on the shelf so that others may work on it. Roll up the floor mat or fold up the table mat and return it to its place.
