Hello kindergarten teachers I have a question for those in the New York area. I have a son going into kindergarten in a few days. My question is what knowledge is he expected to walk in knowing?

Well he should know his name first and last the letters in them as well. Counting to 31 for the calendar, making 1:1 correspondents too. Colors, shapes, some rhyming, how to hold a book, which way to “read”, turn the pages and know how to say what they see on the page.
Some aspects of the calendar- days and months-weather to describe it

Any parents who are still on the safe side with Covid? We have a 1 year old and being safe and staying mostly home is really getting to me. Most of our friends have kids who are able to mask up or are vaccinated and it’s getting quite isolating. Especially now mask mandates are being lifted feeling like we can’t go anywhere without risking our kid.

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

I’m looking for an effective 1/2 day kindergarten schedule. This will be my first time teaching kinder and I’m trying to wrap my head around how I’m going to teach all this content!

I found out a few weeks ago that I will be going from mentee to leader of our K-1 group and that I will be the head Kindergarten teacher. Does anyone have suggestions to help me be a mentor?

I use ClassDojo and a behavior clip chart to manage behavior. We have switched to personalized learning and a teacher next to me says that this is not conducive to personalized learning and good behavior is expected and shouldn’t be rewarded. Has anyone given up the clip method and how does this work for you?

Is anyone else returning to fully in person learning? We have been hybrid/synchronous since September, which has been very hard and not very effective. They want us to have all Kindergarten students come back in March. I want to stop live teaching over google meet all day while also teaching my students in person at the same time, but there is not enough space in my classroom for safe distancing, not enough space for movement, and sitting at a desk all day is not appropriate for K kids!
