It's simple, but that's what I think you need for your situation, yet it still gives you a basic idea of where each child is starting! Hope you have fun no matter what you decide to do.<br />Krissy<br /><i><b><a href="http://kindergartenmonkeybusiness.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Mrs.Miner’s Monkey Business</a></b></i>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259714070770644482.post-65947895705337205992011-07-28T20:59:28.849-05:002011-07-28T20:59:28.849-05:00We have a Rainbow Fish theme for our Kindergarten ...We have a Rainbow Fish theme for our Kindergarten Round-Up/Visitation. We read the Rainbow fish and then we decorate a paperplate fish with tissue paper. To make it easy: the plates are already cut & stapled with a name label on the back, the tissue paper is also already cut into squares. Then we mix glue & water and let them paint it on, add the tissue squares and TADA!! They love it!!<br /><br /><br />✿ Stacy<br /><b><i><a href="http://stacykindergarten.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Land of Aha-Z!</a></i></b><br /><b><i><a href="http://www.oakleywolfsden.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Wolf’s Den</a></i></b>Stacy K.

He would be hiding in the halls at different locations (i.e. music, p.e., art, cafeteria) that the students would need to know. After the "hunt" was over we would go back to the room and decorate a cookie and eat. Yum! The kids love it.<br /><br />Laura<br /><b> <a href="http://kinderkraziness.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"> Kinder Kraziness </a> </b>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09056252732467822848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259714070770644482.post-70614598540472886182011-07-28T15:51:49.950-05:002011-07-28T15:51:49.950-05:00This looks like a great site so now I need to foll...This looks like a great site so now I need to follow you.

We write in their names beforehand and if time, let them color in the classroom before they get to actually ride on the school bus to get used to it before Fall. If they don't have time, they can take them home to color and talk about their expereince with their families.Cargiolinoreply@blogger.com
