Memorable moments

Today's memorable moment was not watching a woman sleep with her mouth open on the train. It was not witnessing a few students and parents argue at the bus stop in a different language. It was not having dinner with just my dad (although it might be a first). Nope, today's memorable moment was realizing that my students are actually learning. They did a little cut and paste activity in order to create a funny face and then we sat in a circle while each child presented their work. And they were ALL able to! I was so proud of them for remembering the vocabulary words we'd just learned last week! Also, on a random and funny note, last week while they were drawing themselves on huge paper (they traced each other's silhouettes), I had one student draw their private parts and another draw poop! These memorable moments are what makes teaching Kindergarten so great!
