Second Linky...
I have several CDs I have used since working with PreK and my favorites are...
Greg and Steve! I have many of their CDs and they were ahit always with my kiddos..Here's a favorite that includes Bop til You Drop, Bear Hunt, etc.
Mr. Al a Carte
Laurie Berkner's "Story of my Feelings" book with CD (the kids really enjoy this one!)
And of course, some classics like Disney, Wiggles, Sesame Street, Barney, were in rotation in my PreK class as well.
Last Linky!
- An area of your house piled high with classroom supplies!
- You get excited at the Dollar Tree and Target's $1 aisle
- You keep pinning things on Pinterest solely for your classroom
- Kid Songs are stuck in your head
- You find many uses for toilet paper/paper towel rolls
- You find yourself talking to an adult like they are your students
HAHA! I love this--- You might be a teacher if..."you find yourself talking to an adult like they are your students". Do this one all time! Oh no!!!
ReplyDeletelol I catch myself sometimes and my boyfriend always tells me he's not one of my students!
DeleteThose really look like fun CD's-I need to incorporate songs more into our transitions. So often I get their songs stuck in my head-last year their favorite was "Silent E is a Ninja" from the Electric Company-that song would be stuck for days! :)
