Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten: A REALLY Long Post, but LOTS of Stuff!

I cannot believe I am teaching Thanksgiving...where did the first day of school go? It seems like it was yesterday! Here are just a few of the things from last week and this week that we have been doing. I hung these along with our Frankensteins by Deanna...I didn't do the glyph part, but thought it went perfect with this name activity. What is Genius?

Tough, the P.E. teacher, felt was some ‘inappropriate’ behavior. Then, it seems, she forgot they were there. Recess came and went, and still they sat and waited as they were told. But after 20 minutes or so, Brian decided this had gone on long enough, went to the bathroom, and slipped out the back door of the gym unnoticed. Selective Mutism. What is selective mutism?

Selective Mutism

Children with selective mutism (SM) can speak well in some situations, but remain silent in others. Children usually talk freely at home, with family members, but find themselves unable to talk outside their home. Educate Autism.

The Selectively Silent Child - suggestions for teachers.

They respond to, and develop friendships with, their classmates and are not necessarily subjected to bullying. Other children seem to be quite happy with nonverbal interaction and may even take on the responsibility of speaking for the selectively silent child. They may, indeed, achieve a high level of popularity, among their classmates, due to their often quite extensively developed talent for creative arts such as painting, writing, poetry and dancing - developed, perhaps, because they are activities which do not require interaction with others. Once a teacher determines that a child is not speaking at school (and he/she is often the first person to do so, the parents not being in a position to know that the child is not behaving as he/she normally does at home), professional help should be sought out.

I have to admit I was a tad intimidated to walk into Lowe’s and grab a whole pile of paint chips, but the lady was talking to me the whole time and didn’t seem to mind. (Note: I did try Home Depot first, but didn’t like their paint chips, they were mostly 1 color on a card and didn’t have the ones with the hole cut out. Though later, I decided the hole was too small and used a 1 1/4″ hole punch to make it bigger.) 37108_000_013_02-circles.pdf (application/pdf Object) Kindergarten-Preschool Family and Pets Theme.
