Morning Talk


The mornings are one of my favorite times. It is so fun to watch the expression on their faces as they come into school and greet their friends. I always have an activity waiting for them at the table to work on as we wait for the rest of the class to arrive. Some children start talking right away and others listen and wait. This morning we were stringing colored wheel pasta and we talked about Trent's birthday party and his "A-go Ooter" (Diego Scooter) which prompted the others to talk about their scooters. Then we talked about dogs and babies. I rarely have to prompt the children to talk--they always have lots to say! I love it!
