All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom is not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life-learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out in the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.
Everything you need to know is in there somewhere!
Poem by Robert Fulghum
I thought that their mailboxes were so cute! I love how creative and different they all turned out! We had lots of fun at our Valentine's Day party on Friday. We passed out our Valentine's, played some online Valentine's Day games on our new SmartBoard, watched a Discovery UnitedStreaming video about the history and traditions of the holiday, made that nice poem Valentine for our moms and dads and began to make our Valenine's into a keepsake book. I made all my adorable Valentine's that the children gave me into a book, decorated it and am getting it laminated as we speak. After I get it back it will be in our class library to enjoy for years to come!
