Silent Appreciation

This blog attempts to document some of the more interesting moments of my life as a kindergarten & first grade teacher. A note regarding the name: Silent appreciation, as used in my classroom, is a hand movement used to eliminate the need for noisy clapping. When silently appreciating, children raise their hands in the air and quickly rotate their wrists around. It's quite a triumphant move.

Rock Party

Five-year-old C. announced that her family is going to a Rock Party this weekend.

"My dad's going to be a rocker, my brother's going to play guitar, my mom's going to sing and my girlfriend's going to be Lady Gaga. And I'll be all the single ladies."

Ha!
