It sounds like a wonderful first day. Our schools have gotten extremely academic. They are not allowed to nap. Your first day sounds very child friendly.

[@johnpalmer330]

You are absolutely phenomenal as a kindergarten teacher! My daughter starts in just over a week. I can only hope that she has someone as intuitive and creative as you to foster her growth! You are awesome!

[@inspireclay1473]

[@ascensioncano3606]

Thanks !!!!

[@mahazeyad6279]

Thanks a lot for this amazing video Could u please suggest songs for the first day for kindergarten

[@karynarellano6575]

Can you please post a copy of the Pete the Cat Scavenger Hunt? I'd love to use it with my Kinder kids too! Thanks!

[@kidscats3952]

Do the kids come to kindergarten already able to read? Your room is pretty. I like the bright colors instead of shiplap paper and burlap border that sooooo many teachers used for primary level kids. I feel the room belongs to the kids and should be decorated for them. I don't know a single child who likes burlap, shiplap paper, black walls, and such.

[@essentiallykinder9055]

Kids&cats Thank you!! ❤️ Most of my kids come in knowing most uppercase letters, a handful of lowercase, and a few sounds. Very few know sight works and can read. It’s amazing how much they grow and what they can do by the end of the year!!!

[@martinez3690]

No, at least in my school which in lower income area, most kids come in with no previous school experience and have not practiced at all.

[@anneramirez451]

I have had it both ways in different districts. It depends on the emphasis on pre-k in the district, I feel.

[@angelarickman9153]

Many children do not react well to vivid or wild colors. I decorated my classroom in pink and brown (icing and chocolate). Parents and students said it was relaxing.

[@ShawnniPoo]

Where did you get the posters of the storybook characters?

[@jenniferwashburn3893]

Hi! Where can I find the Pete the Cat coloring page? Thank you so much! Great video.

[@essentiallykinder9055]

Hi!!! I just looked and I think it is a coloring page that one of my teammates passed down to me!!! When I'm back in the classroom, I will double-check and let you know!

[@jenniferwashburn3893]

@@essentiallykinder9055 Thank you so much!

[@the5crows375]

Do you make up the morning meeting sayings or do you already have ones ready to go that you just use?

[@essentiallykinder9055]

the5Crows Each morning I make them up! I try to focus on a skill we are working on, such as beginning sounds, specific sight words, and so on. I keep the sentences mostly the same but add in if we have gym, music, or art each day!

[@the5crows375]

@@essentiallykinder9055 that makes sense. I know sometimes for me, it's hard to come up with things on the fly. I was hoping there was already made meeting messages where I could tweak. But I think I can handle it now. Thank you!
