I must say of the 4 different grades I have taught --or am teaching, Kindergarten ROCKS! We get to do so many fun arts and crafts that all the kids like to get involved in. We made crayons recently. All you do is break apart old crayons into 1" pieces. Make sure all of the paper has been removed. Line a cupcake pan with foil, place broken crayons in each slot, filling about 1/2 way with all different colors. Place in preheated 300' oven for 5-7 minutes. Once they have melted, remove from oven and they need to cool in pan for about 30 minutes. When all done, pop them out of the foil and you are all done! Its neat to see all the color creations that they make.
On another note, we are also learning about attitudes. What makes you happy, sad, scared, excited (you get the idea) and how your face expresses those feelings--Seth sure is using good facial expressions, expressing just how he feels--don't ya think?
2 just gotta say::
looks like your week of schooling has been filled with such great activies... better not show my kids.. they will be jealous.. you are one fun teacher :-)
before i read what you wrote, i saw seth's expression and I thought: but does he think kindergarten is fun? :)
