My students are busy and energetic, especially at the beginning of the year. They are just learning how to be in school and how to be part of a classroom. We focus on social emotional skills like sharing, taking turns, using kind words, personal space, body control, and many others. My school focuses on whole brain teaching and making sure students are always engaged. I love whole brain teaching and am excited to introduce even more aspects of into my teaching next year. I also believe in the power of play and think that play should be used as a strategy for teaching content throughout the day. Play is missing from most Kindergartens across the country, but is something you will find a lot of in my classroom!
