my first year of teaching

@sspec intereesting idea

@Mountainlady16 interesting*

@sspec lol yeah I was fighting my cat for my keyboard last night

@Mountainlady16 Wondering who won!

@sspec she did she wanted attn so i stopped and gave her attn and finished typing my meet the teacher letters for my students parents this morning

@sspec but i took your idea i gave my oldest bullentin board paper and hes making one each about letters, shapes and numbers.

@Mountainlady16 Instead, let them draw real life objects seen around keeping the learnt shapes of letters.
Viz,: Half moon revising the letter C.
7 cakes/candies to denote the number 7

@sspec yeah he did that with the numbers but the letter idea wouldnt really work with the letters for this age group

@Mountainlady16 Probably Tear (not Cut) n paste method wud work giving them a sense of achievement n colour to the walls around.

@sspec might be an idea our letter poster that we have has an animal that the letter starts with beside the letter. but im dealing with young toddlers mostly were going to be teaching them how to recite the alphabet at most. maybe a few the 2 year olds later in the year well start learning to recognize a few letters.

@Mountainlady16 Gross n fine motor muscular movements of fingers is a must in that mentioned stage.
Enjoy your profession. Best!

@sspec yes much i taught my children how to recite the alphabet but making the sign for each letter my oldest son has even taken to watching youtube videos to learn more asl on his own in the last year or so. i mentioned that to my coteachers today

@sspec funny i act learned to sign the alphabet in high school when i learned the spanish alphabet which my teacher used the asl alphabet making up signs for the extra letters found in the spanish language
