"All I Ever Really Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten"
Robert Fulgham

Most of what I really to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in Kindergarten. Wisdow was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there im the sandbox at nursery school.

These are the things I learned....

Share everything.
Play far.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life.
Learn some and think some and draw and play and sing and play and work every day some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world, watch for taffic, hold hands, and stick together.
Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed I the plastic cup? The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - they all die. So do we.
And then remember the look about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all: Look.
Everything you need to know is in there somewhere.
The Golden Rule and love basic sanitation.
Ecology and politics and sane living.
Think of what a better world it be if we all - the whole world had cookies and milk about 3 o' clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation to always put things back where we found them and cleaned up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together...

This video is very interesting for learn numbers... I hope you apreciatte!!!

Estou fazendo o projeto "Feelings" com meus alunos... Pergunto para eles como se sentem naquele dia (triste, alegre, zangado, com sono...), mostro flashcards com figuras representando sentimentos, repito a pergunta, agora em inglês "How are you feeling today?" e mostro novamente os flashcards, agora nominando os sentimentos em inglês (sad, happy, angry, sleepy...)
Depois canto com eles a song "If you're happy, happy, happy, clap your hands..."! Eles amam dançar e participar....

Games

A little game for kids:

Você se lembra da brincadeira "Corre, cutia..."? Hoje vou postar uma brincadeira similar, mas "in english"... Ao invés de você cantar aquela musica, você substitui por essa:

"This is my ball... My little ball... This is my ball... and I give to you... One, two, three..."

Simple and fun!!!

Bye.
