Today was the last day of the second week of school, the day before Easter Break, and April Fool's Day!
Today was fun! I wish I could have stayed this afternoon because the students were having an Easter Egg Hunt!
Today Mrs. Fouts rearranged the tables and some of the student's seats. She said that it would be better to transition them today rather than after Spring Break. They do not adapt well to change. They like routine and need it. When the students came in, they were all commenting on where they were sitting and how the tables looked like an I. When it was time to send the students to the centers, she called the original yellow table and then the orange table. The girl who sat at the the original yellow table was so confused when she called both colors because she said that she sat at the yellow table and now sits at the orange table. I had to clearify it to her.
Kindergartners NEED routine!

Our students are changing seats soon and I am curious how they will adapt to that. I also missed our class egg hunt :(. But I got to watch some of Peter Cottontail with them during snack time today!
ReplyDeleteI think your last statement is o so true. Not only do kindergartners need routine, all grades need it. Once you change routine, students freak out.
ReplyDeleteTrue! I changed the groups in my Bio class that I TA for and they reminded me of my kindergartners! :)
