Hoot #1
We began centers/workstations this week! The students LOVE them! They did so well with following directions and completing the activities. We were impressed! They actually "hoot and holler" when it is center time! That is their favorite part of the day.
Hoot #2
Light it up, up, up!! Yes, another Ron Clark inspired idea gets a hoot this week! We left RCA with SO many ideas that we wanted to incorporate into our classrooms! We are taking baby steps towards our end goal, and this is one idea that is a huge hit with the kiddos! Ron Clark students stand on tables, so do we. Ron Clark used disco lights to celebrate accomplishments, so..... we have disco lights and LED lights to help us celebrate successes. We do A LOT of moving in kindergarten, and we sing and dance A LOT! The lights only come on for special occasions. The kids love it when the lights are on, and even some have said that they love school because their classroom has lights! haha If it keeps them motivated to want to come to school and learn, then we are all for it!!
This Week's Holler...
This week's holler goes out to Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten. We use Julie's stuff on a regular basis in our classroom. She has a ton of resources if you are look for items for you centers. Over the past couple of years, we have done an activity with the poem Rainbow Hair. After looking at her blog, that is about to change!! She has a Troll Craft that is SUPER CUTE!!
