Best quote of the day!

We have been working on learning our sight words. Those are the words most common in print. If Kindergarten kiddos can learn these words their reading levels just rocket up so fast. So the kids have 20 words on a list that they are learning. This is a conversation I had with C today.
C-Miss T my reading group won't believe me that this isn't the word we. They say it is and I say it's NOT! (she is almost in tears)
Me-Let me see what word your talking about. She points to the word "we". That is the word "we" C.
C-No it's not! You spell "we" Wii.
I love these moments!

Wow! I just can't keep up!

I don't know what has happened to my blogging lately! I promise we are still here and doing great, but I just can't find the time to blog. The kids are learning and growing up so much. Everyday I laugh at some of the amazing things they say! Do you ever wonder what your kiddos are telling me at school? Well, I've decided to start keeping track of some of the good ones. Don't worry, no names, no pictures!

A-Miss T. I'm just not playing with a full deck today.
Me-What does that mean A?
A- I don't know, it just what my mom says when my dad doesn't make sense!

J-Miss T there is a word on the list that I can't say.
Me-Come show me, that's the word "but".
J-Miss T I can't say that word
Me-What are you talking about I just told you what it is
J-Last time I said it to my brother I got grounded!

I was walking around the room while the kids were working. I noticed that K was copying the paper of the boy next to her. So I stopped to watch her work. That is when she said ...
K-I'm glad you are here to help me, but I really don't need you anymore so you can go.

We have been getting ready for 1st grade by giving the kid more and more freedom. They can now walk themselves out at the end of the day. When I overheard L say to another kiddo.
L-You know, soon we aren't even going to need Miss T anymore!
