First Week

Well, we started our first week of school!  I have given the students an opportunity to share stories about themselves.  This gives us a chance to get to know them on a personal level.  This is the first step in teaching Kindergartners to write.  I also talked about when we color we need to use the right colors.  For example:  they did a dot to dot of an apple so we talked about what color should we use to color the apple, red, green or yellow.  I am planning on introducing the Drawing and Writing book to my students next week.  Then let the fun begin with teaching them how to draw realistic objects!
