Tell Me About Your Day

How does your child respond when you ask them about their day?  Do you often hear them say,"I don't remember"?  I thought I would try posting a few pictures or prompts from time to time to help with these conversations.  I hope you find this helpful.

For this week, you may wish to use some of the following prompts and questions...

• How was your first fire drill?  What have you learned about fire drills at school?  
• Tell me about your drawings in your sketchbook.  When drawing people remember to use...
• What was the "brain break" for today?
• Who is the cartoon character that helps you with some of your math lessons on the SMART board?  
• The character, David, in David Shannon's books is helping us to think about good school rules.  What would be a good school rule?
• Reading isn't only about reading the words.  What is another way to read books when you don't know the words? 
• We are learning about our reading interests.  What have we learned about our friends?  What characters do we like?  What makes a book a favorite book?
