First off, let me point out that Ms. Tiffany is not an easy name to say. Especially with a Ms. Toni in the morning. Names get tough. While working with the children I've acquired a variety of names.....Ms. Neurf (not to sure how that one came about).......Ms. Teeny (Ironic, a am teeny).....M. Talalala (said with a slur).........and my absolute favorite...makes me giggle every time...Ms. Tickle me.....I just can't get enough of these little guys.
Our first two weeks of school were "all about me" we gave children many opportunities to explore themselves and how they are unique. For one of our activities I cut out a face shape for each of my ocean friends. I sat all ten of them at the table and brought out the paint. "Today we are going to paint faces" I said. My friends cheered uncontrollably. "Wow, " I thought, "who knew they'd be so excited (little did I know.....). I turned my head (oops!) to grab the face cut outs. I turned back to unrecognizable children? They had painted their "faces". ......... Well, I couldn't be upset, after all, I said it. So we sat and painted faces, including Ms. Tiffany's face for the rest of activity.
No injuries so far, although sometimes I don't know how we manage that. Especially with our future QB. His current sport is baseball, which isn't so bad. But it was football, we have one soft football outside. When this little guy has it, everyone on the playground is playing football.... tackle football....... even little sally building castles in the sandbox is playing..... my friends are innocently standing in the wood-chips when BAM!!! They're tackled to the ground. I frequently explain to my friend the QB that some friends are not playing and its not a choice to tackle. (of course he feels bad, its all in fun to him)
to be continued......
