Each one (it's staggered schedule so it was only 1/3 of my class) told me about their favorite game to play and where it was played. Then they came up one at a time and graphed their answer.
After they put the magnetic square on either inside or outside we counted and compared. I LOVE it!
This was fun to do especially since I knew we would spend the majority of the day testing.
You can find my morning messages here:
After I finish All About Me, we are going to be doing the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom morning messages....I can't wait!

I put the bundle on my wish list. Looks like great resource. Was wondering about how you mention you only have a third of the class. How does that work and for how long. I'm very interested in the beginning of year assessing. Our district starts all kindergartners on day one. When you have time could you elaborate about this. Thanks so much.

We do a staggered schedule for the first 10 day so they can adjust and we can assess. We group them in 3 groups at first. Day 1 is the 1st third, day 2 second third and day 3 third third. Then they each come again with just a third. On the 7th day through the 10th day I'll have half. On the 11th day of school all of them come together. I hope that made sense. It's hard to explain, but easy to make the schedule. I'm very blessed that my school district does it this way.
