Today was a new favorite day in Kindergarten. We learned a little history of Macy’s Thanksgiving parade, read ‘Balloons over Broadway’, and designed our own balloons. ThePokémon was our favorite balloon from the 2023 parade! @BunnElementary
This week we started math centers. Five Frame Apples were a hit! Thanks @ECUcrystalECU for the demonstrations last year that we could bring out again this year.

I was blessed with some really great teammates my first year.
I have worked with some really amazing new teachers the last few years and pray I am a blessing to our new teammates this year.
There’s something so exciting about brand new teachers’ classrooms and watching them get it ready all summer long. So much wonder. So much self-drive. So much innocence.
The sad part is when we see a new teacher lose that because they don’t feel supported during their first year.
Support your new teachers.
🔺Check on them daily.
🔸Model lessons for them.
🔺Provide them an automatic coaching cycle with the instructional coach on day 1.
🔸Provide specific feedback.
🔺Model the first phone call home.
🔸Pre-plan their first parent conf and do it with them.
🔺Simply ask, “How can I help?” And ask often.
Teachers will be more likely to stay in the profession when they feel supported. Plain and simple.
What did I miss?
For 175 days I have called these precious children “my kids.”
While they will always be my kids, I am proud to call them FIRST GRADERS!
Happy Summer friends!
(We had 6 friends absent today)

We studied the plant life cycle a couple weeks ago. Today we planted out sprouts. Can’t wait to see what grows!

Today was show and tell! We met our classroom goal for cleaning up our area and earned a reward.
