On Friday, March 5th, Scott Ave. celebrated our annual Dr. Seuss's Day. We had community workers come to the classrooms and read stories and talk about their jobs. We also had a visit from a very special person ~ The Cat in the Hat.
#5 When hanging up backpacks, a boy said he smelled like a real man. I said "You do?" and he said "Yeah. I sprayed that real man smell stuff on this morning." I had to laugh as I told him he did smell nice.
#4 During our Chinese New Year Party, the children were enjoying their food when one boy opened his fortune cookie and rushed to tell his friend, " You know, you'll have to eat the paper!"
#3 During our whole group writing time, I wrote the sentence: "I like pink," said my mom. One of my precious students said, "Hey! That's my mom's name!" :)
#2 Thursday, after our day off for Veteran's Day, as we walked in to the classroom to start our day, one of the children said, "I need a break!" I told him, "We just had a day off." He replied, "Well I need a vacation!"
#1 As we were leaving the classroom, I realized that I didn't have many "green days" left. I went to the closet, grabbed green construction paper and scissors, folded the paper and started cutting strips. One of my little guys saw me doing this and said, "Is THAT how we get green days!" When I said yes he turned to the other children and said "Look, she's making green days!"
Kindergarten is a fun and exciting time in a child's life. It is here where the foundation of school begins. They will learn to read, write, add, subtract, as well as how to be a good student in school. We strive for the children to love school and to love to learn. We are anticipating an exciting year ahead!
