Social Skills

In Kindergarten, while we work and play, we are also developing our social skills. Social skills are something that everyone - even adults- need to learn in order to be successful in life. These skills include... 
  • getting along with others, 
  • sharing, 
  • taking turns, 
  • using kind words, 
  • showing respect to others, 
  • developing strategies for dealing with conflict, 
  • understanding body language and facial expressions, 
  • negotiating, 
  • etc. The list goes on!!! 
Today 3 kids were playing Snakes and Ladders. One child said to the others..."It doesn't matter who goes first, it just matters that we have fun!" Hmmm... What a great idea!
We are learning about Tally Marks. Another way to represent numbers!







Today we had our second classmate celebrating her 6th Birthday. So we all made a special picture to put in a Birthday Book for her!
