Classroom routines<br><br>1. Describe the end of day routine in the class​
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Before starting your end-of-day routine, it's vital to mentally clear the children from the previous activity. After ordering them to put down their books, materials, and distractions, signal for their attention.

Wait until they've settled in. Allow them a quiet moment to collect their thoughts and release any leftover energy. This pause will signal the beginning of your children's final routine for the day.

Instruct your children to get out of their seats, put on their backpacks, and stand respectfully behind their chairs. Make the most of one's strength by having one pupil line up first. Then, one by one, call each table group or row.

Write a formal letter to the chiarman of your local government area requesting for social amenities in our community
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

                                                                              Universal Model School,

                                                                              90 Aba Owerri Road,

                                                                              Aba.

                                                                              March 26, 2021.

The Chairman,

Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area,

Aba.

 

           Sir,

        REQUEST FOR SOCIAL AMENITIES IN UMUNGASI COMMUNITY

  It is on record that Umungasi stands in a prominent position among all the communities in Aba. This is because of the inclination of Umungasi Community to commerce and industry.

 

  Unfourtunately, the people of Umungasi have found it difficult to carry on with trade due to poor road network and lack of basic amenities.

   There is no standard road in Umungasi and environs. This has unfournately separated us from people in other Local Government Areas of the state.

  Electricity and pipe borne water are other unfortunately absent amenities in Umungasi here.

   I humbly request that you come to our aid speedily so that the community can experience  the true dividends of good governance.

  Thanks in anticipation of your positive response.

                                                                                        Yours Faithfully,

 

                                                                                         Jude Njoku
