I haven't posted in awhile due to the many things going on with school. In case you haven't heard, I switched from student teaching in 6th grade to student teaching in Kindergarten. Yeah--two completely different worlds.
I would like to share with you apart of my everyday:
"Does anyone have any questions about what to do when you get your paper?"
- Um--guess what? I have one of those (referring to a DVD case shaped like a rectangle)
- I have one of those too...and my dad bought me a new one yesterday (referring to the DVD case shaped like a rectangle)
- I have a dog too (not referring to the DVD case shaped like a rectangle, or anything we had just talked about)
Aside from not knowing what the difference between a comment and a question is, I find myself over-hearing random, hilarious things from these kindergartners:
- I'm the best at smelling water
- I knew that way before teacher did
- I'm going to tell teacher that you just ate your crayon (literally)
And I find myself having to say things I never thought I'd have to say:
- Everyone needs to keep their hands, their feet, and their mouths to themselves (yes-they were licking/kissing each other)
- I said "walk" to your table, not army crawl
- Could you please stop squeezing glue into Katelyn's hair?
Welcome to Kindergarten
