When 19 Kindergarteners are amazed by the fact that you have siblings, you give them what they want and show them a picture! They have all their names down pat and talk about them like they’re part of the class 😂❤️ #HappyFriday!!

Jigsaw puzzles are a great way for children to develop their spatial thinking and problem-solving skills.

Why not create them yourself at home!

Most great teachers didn’t start out that way! But…

1) They reflected on what worked and what didn’t.

2) They learned from their colleagues.

3) They always kept their focus on the students.

Every teacher can be a BETTER teacher!

The single best way to ensure that the kids finish the year strong… is for the adults to finish the year strong.

My #UniversalPreK class got in the voting mood today! We talked about what it means to #vote and how everybody was voting for a president today. They were super excited to vote for our read aloud after our discussion! 🇺🇸🍎👌🏼

Welcome back!! 🍎
Yesterday we brainstormed some class “promises” for this school year. Now they’re hanging up so we never forget 😊 #teamwork #UniversalPreK

#AtHomeLearning After reading The Mixed Up Chameleon by Eric Carle, have your child paint by number! Make some simple math problems for them to work on, and then let them create some art! You can hang this up as some fun, colorful too ☺️🎨

Children love to master the sequence of counting words just as they love to sing their ABCs. Regardless of how high a preschooler can rote count, a child’s sense of what those numbers actually mean develops gradually.

“One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish” fun today to start our #DrSeuss unit! This activity allows students to practice connecting items to an amount, and work on one-to-one correspondence!

In a kindergarten classroom, a child runs up to the teacher and says, “A triangle equals a square!” Although that may seem to be incorrect, in starting a discussion about what the child means, we can bring out a MATH MOMENT.
