Facts

So in the last month, I've realized that there are a few facts about my Kindergartners...

Fact #1--- Blowing a whistle is like music to their ears...Who me, they Say? The whistle does not imply being quiet or lining up.
Fact #2-- -When a kid is hurt, take them to the drinking fountain. It does wonders in calming the child down.
Fact #3---An untie shoe is better than tied. But the shoe relay race is amazingly fun.
Fact#4--Asking a child if they have their lunch card is like asking the wind.
Fact#5---Don't try and show a kids up in sit-ups, when you yourself haven't done one in 10 years.
Fact#6---Dodge ball is the best game ever, and I am the coolest teacher for it.
Fact#7---Dandelions will live forever.
Fact#8---If you are sick, then you must drink lots of water...not nap. Water is better for you.
Fact#9---Mixing milk cards in with the lunch cards is a great trick to make Miss Childs' ''go crazy. Ok, so maybe I threw a little tantrum about it, and the kids thought it was funny.
Fact#10---The Phrase "blow a bubble in your mouth" will keep 60 kids quiet walking down the hall to music and art.
Fact#11---10-count jumping jacks Rock!!!
Fact#12---Kickball is a blast, when Miss Childs' is at the top of the bleachers trying not to fall and catch the ball.

I make a bubble whenever walking by kindergartners because it keeps me from talking to them.

That's great Kevin. Teachers just laugh when I yell blow a bubble, and don't pop it.
