Sharing Time


Last Friday the boys and girls brought a Christmas present to share.  They had the option of just telling about it, rather than bringing the item and telling about it. 


The objectives for sharing time are: (1)  Share information; (2) Speak in a loud, clear voice; (3) Look at the audience (good eye contact); (4) Use proper grammar; (5) Have fun! 

The pictures below show what they brought so you can be a part of our Sharing Time.  DRUM ROLL, PLEASE!

This first grader brought PART of his new drum set.  I wonder if Santa brought any ear plugs! 

This student told about his new I Spy book.  This book series is great for developing visual discrimination.
Okay, I will admit that I had to go to Google to spell this word:  Fushigi.  This is a Fushigi ball also known as a gravity ball.  Good for relaxation and building balance.  I continue to be amazed at what I learn from six year olds!


This is my kind of pet--a Zu Zu pet!  No poop to clean up, unlike that left by my Grandpugs Maggie and Mayhem! 

This student used his artistic abilities to illustrate  his gift of a combined car (I think this is the name of it).   He also received other toys.

This first grader asked to leave the room momentarily.  When I turned around there was a New York Jets football player in class!  Go Jets!







This imaginative student drew a picture of her laptop computer!  Hmm...Dell may have a spot for her in marketing!

Rev up your engines!  This motorcycle ran right over the teacher's foot--minor injury!

These are light up Barbie and Ken dolls.  The student demonstrated how they work.  Fun!  Fun!
This is an Air Hogs Helicopter.  I tried to get a picture of it in flight but after the motorcycle mishap I didn't want to press my luck!


Another Air Hogs helicopter!  This copter only skimmed the top of the teacher's head!  One of the first grade girls said her daddy got one of these from Santa. 

This lucky student's Christmas present was a trip to Hawaii!  Earlier in the week he shared shells and a starfish from his trip.  He drew a picture of a humpback whale and his condo on the board to tell more about the wonderful experience.


The American Girl Doll--don't they look like twins?





A Legos fire engine--aren't Legos tons of fun?

This is a picture of the new four-wheeler and Dr. Puppy.  Lots of fun!



This is an awesome pillow book!  I will repeat that I never cease to be amazed at what I learn from six year olds!
