Okay, I just got the call from my principal. I will have my same class next year! That makes me very happy. Now, however, I need to come up with some new activities for the first two days of school. I really don't need to get to know their names, what they are like - I already know them. So, I think I am going to look for team building activities. This is one thing that I would like them to develop this year - working as a team, supporting each other. I'd like to read the Chrysanthemum book again - the crumble girl activity. Maybe I could find a different book, but the same activity. Perhaps we could make a bulletin board or hallway display out of the crumbled 'girl/boy'. So today I am going to search the 'net for ideas and then let them roll around in my head till I figure out which one I want to do!
Ideas so far - time capsule, magic wand, great expectations, snowballs, baby pictures (need to contact parents in August). Just some thoughts!
