"Mrs. Elmore, can you chap my lips"?
(the child was wanting me to put vaseline on her lips)
"Just push this button, and you will be back in business"!
(A child asked a friend how to do something on the computer in the computer lab)
This week we learned about punctuation. We learned that when you use a period you are telling, a question mark you are asking, and and exclamation mark you are yelling. In order to really help the children understand and transfer their learning successfully, we came up with a gesture and a sound that goes along with each punctuation. The period we put our hands out like we stopped fast and say "eeeeeeerrrrr". For the question mark we shrug our shoulders while saying "hhmmmm?"?? And finally the exclamation mark we quickly put one arm out like a straight line and use our other fist for the dot at the bottom and say "eeeeeuuh"!! You can image the giggles we get after that one!! We also had fun using our bodies to make all the punctuation marks!! KINDER QUOTE OF THE WEEK...
