My most recent "alumni" Kindergarten students were my teacher helpers these past 2 weeks. They are now in 3rd grade, but Kindergarten days are still pretty fresh in their minds (and mine!).
Juliana hid chicks around the room that had certain letters on them. She would show one of the girls a letter flashcard, and they had to search around the room trying to find the chick which had the matching letter. Once all the chicks were found, the girls returned them to their mother hen, who was waiting quite anxiously on the chalkboard. :-) (That poor hen had quite the brood!!)
Leah did play dough letters with the girls. The girls LOVE working with play dough, so they definitely enjoyed forming their letters!
Grace did "salt writing" with the girls. She was a natural at this "teacher helper" stuff! I just let her do her thing. :-) She found different ways to do flashcards with the girls and made sure everyone had equal time writing their letters in the salt. Hmmmmm...I think I may see Kindergarten teacher in her future. :D
*Sigh* It feels like only yesterday that these girls were in my class...
