Alright, so for the 2011-2012 school year, I have moved back to kindergarten! This is quite exciting for me - in no other grade level can you take students from nothing (literally, in some cases) to something. It's like an increase of INFINITY percent. Whoa.
Here's one story from the first couple weeks - more to hopefully follow soon.
The class is sitting on the rug, and we're doing some vocabulary work. One of the vocab words for is "puddles", since it shows up in our anchor text for this week. I asked the students to describe a picture of a little girl in boots about to jump into a puddle.
One of them said, "Mr. Graham! She is wearing red boots!"
"Mr. Graham! She has a raincoat on!"
Another (who speaks Spanish at home), says quietly, "Mr. Graham. She is going to wetting herself."
Yup. It's going to be a GREAT year.
