Happy Fall from Teach123! Sometimes the new season, means a change in weather and the inevitable inside recess. If you haven't discussed the procedures for this yet with your class, I would add it to your "to do" list. Your substitute will appreciate it if you include detailed instructions about what activities and materials your students can do or use for inside recess. Plan now a variety of activities before your class catches cabin fever. It will make these days a little less hectic. My choice of activity was based on my students' behavior, energy level, how many inside recess days in a row we've had, and my energy level. Games are helpful when my students are in a social mood. Through the year I have accumulated games from thrift stores and parents. Since I save them for special times like inside recess, the novelty of the experience holds my students' attention. It helps if you collect games that vary with difficulty level and how many players are required to play. Suggestions: Operation, Barrel Full of Monkeys, Connect Four, Perfection, Don't Spill the Beans, Ants in the Pants, Don't Break the Ice, Hi Ho Cherrio, Boggle, Chutes and Ladders, Candy Land, Sorry, and Trouble Integrating science and art is a good activity when my students have very talkative. Click HERE to read the post. Listen & Draw activities are a quiet activity that also strengthens students' listening skills. These are especially helpful to use when you've had a couple of inside days in a row. Click HERE to read the post.

Hello Everyone! I love this time of year. I love learning about the trials and successes of the small group of Pilgrims who traveled so far and lived through tragic times...all for freedom. I love sharing with kids the differences in the wants and needs between our generations. I love learning and teaching about the different environments and settings. for many of our kids, the stories of the Pilgrims are just that...stories. I often wonder if they realize that most of what we read about from that time period really happened. There is a legend out there that I came across many years ago, The Legend of the Five Corn Kernels. It is said that the Pilgrims endured such hardship that there were times when all they had to eat were five kernels of corn each per day. When times got better, they continued to serve the five corn kernels on their plates to honor and remember those hard times. Many families of original descent continue this practice. From my research, there is no telling if this was in all actuality something that absolutely occurred, but it is still a wonderful tribute to the trials and remembrances of those people. I want to introduce this visual to my students. I put together a little unit to help describe the legend. You can get your own printable of this little unit. Simply Click HERE! Here's to remembering and celebrating history. I hope you have time to enjoy this little legend in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for stopping by! Joyfully! Nancy
