Journaling


I am so fortunate to be a Kindergarten teacher. I am able to watch the children's minds grow in such an amazing way. Already, in Novemeber, they know 50 sight words along with their letters and sounds. Every day as I turn on classical music, the children grab their journals, dictionaries, and pencil cups and walk to their table spots to create their own stories told in their own words. It is so wonderful to watch them sounding words out, looking words up in their dictionaries, and make spaces between their words (AND they are only 5 years old!). I am so proud of their efforts every day. I am so excited to see their writing improve as we go throughout our year in kindergarten together!
