In Kindergarten, a daily occurrence during morning meeting was for children to share special things from home, talk about them, and answer questions from their friends. This year, we focus on just news, sharing about these special things, or events from our lives that we are excited about. We continue to do this during morning meeting, but without the actual item. There are times, when children are super excited to share items with their friends - special projects, postcards, photos, etc. I invite these children to do less formal shares - either at snack or during their choice time and take this time to share these items with their friends and use them to engage in conversation with their friends!
