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
We had a very busy day for Dr. Seuss's birthday on Monday, March 2nd! We had guest readers come into our kindergarten classrooms to read to us-6 in all! We heard some really great stories from former third-grade teacher Tom Mould, Tye Elder's mother, Tammy Elder, former aide, Mrs. Young, former sixth-grade teacher Nancy Davis, former guidance counselor Danny Williams and Sebby's mom, Tina Siegel read for our class in K108! It was a great morning full of great stories, and it is always nice to see former familiar faces come in to visit!
