Kindergarten Visitation Day

A couple of years ago, our school system started a Kindergarten Visitation Day. The current kindergarteners have the day off and next years class gets to spend a little over an hour visiting each of the different classrooms. Each classroom has a different type of activity and it gives the teachers the opportunity to access different aspects of the kids and make any recommendations for Young 5s vs Kindergarten, etc.

Ms. Doane's class had some memory games while learning the kids names in the circle and singing a song. Followed by some singing and "dancing".

Mrs. DeBoer's classroom for story time and some coloring.

Mrs. Oleson's class had a musical chairs type game with numbers. A silly motion song and a couple of games of number bingo.

Allison tells Mrs. DeBoer that she got Bingo and is then rewarded with a sticker for one game, and a piece of candy for the next game.
