The Secret Reader Update

I went to Mikayla’s school to be the surprise Secret Reader as I discussed in this post.  This is something new the teacher has implemented this semester…having a guest “reader” come and read a book of their choice — with or without costume. Of course, I had to have so[...]

Srooleun

    Yeah, it’s another one of those kindergarten posts about spelling…   So last week when I was in Mikayla’s class volunteering for center time, we got to use all new crayons and glue sticks!  New supplies for the new year.  (I love new crayons.  They’re so sharp and c[...]

Secret Reader

  So, it seems I have a secret.   I’ve volunteered to be the Secret Reader at Mikayla’s kindergarten class this Friday.  The very first one!  Good news for that, because I’m the first Secret Reader, I don’t have to follow some stupendous mom-reader who reads 16 books to h[...]

Writing a Book

  If you’ve been following my blog up to now, you’ll be very well aware that I volunteer at my granddaughter’s kindergarten class for Center Time every Tuesday morning. As much as I blog about my kindergarten adventures, it would be hard to miss at this point! So this is a story a[...]

If I told you I had pancakes for breakfast…

…would you know who spent the night with me?   Ah, you have been reading!  Yup, I got to keep Mikayla overnight last night while her mommy and step-dad took what will probably be their last trip alone together for a bit since their baby is due very soon.  Amazingly, Andy had three days off [...]

Rth

  “Rth”   What does that spell? Well, if you’re sounding out words in Kindergarten, take a guess.   If you got “earth”, you are correct. I was back in Kindergarten today.  Lucky me.  Lawrence’s mom couldn’t make it so I got to go twice this week!  (Sor[...]

I Must Be Poor

  Learnings from Kindergarten again this week.  It seems the kids think I must be poor! Let me back up a bit… In Center Time on Tuesday I was, as I have been lately, helping in Writing Center helping the kids “stretch out their words”.  I remember it as “sounding out the w[...]

Walking Home with Kayla

           There’s nothing really to be said about these pictures.  They are just a glimpse of walking with Mikayla and my daughter Kelly after picking K up from school. Except I will say that Hannah Montana ain’t got nothin’ on this child in the clothing department!  T[...]

Mommy Is Not Under the Pillows

LOL.  I just laugh everytime I think about this. I went on Tuesday to volunteer at Mikayla’s kindergarten.  I usually get there at the beginning of the day just as the first bell is ringing.   (Run! Run to class!  Don’t be late!) (No running!) This time, as I started toward the front[...]

Mrs. Michaelson, The Substitute

So, we had a substitute teacher in Kindergarten today. Oh, yeah, for those of you who are thinking maybe I’m hallucinating, going back to my childhood, or just plain on drugs, I volunteer at my granddaughter, Mikayla’s kindergarten every Tuesday morning from 8:25 to 9:35AM.  So, no, I&#[...]
