Homeschooling Kindergarten Forum: MOMSBoard Total Replies: 12 E-mail Thread Print Author Content Mariasmom Nov 11, 2002 11:09 AM My daughter is 5 years old so we don't have to register yet. I am wondering when we do register her we have to have "school" 4 hours a day how do you fill that much time for a kindergartner? Deb TeaLady Nov 11, 2002 11:27 AM The great thing is that play is learning!!! In a K classroom most of their time is spent doing art and manipulatives and puzzles etc. That is all learning. Playing outside or putting a piece of tape on the floor to practice "balancing" is all learning. When she asks you a question about a pinecone or the weather etc. That's school and she's learning. Also since she is 5 you can do kindergarten your own way this year and you can register her in 1st for next year. There are so many things that our children do that are natural learning experiences but we can document them all the same. Going to the park and playing in the sand with water is science! Blessings! Have you read any Charlotte Mason?

Yes Using Technology with Kindergarten Students A kindergarten teacher shares best practice examples of exciting activities she does using technology to enhance learning in her kindergarten classroom. By Chris Gathers have been teaching kindergarten for 30 years. I have taught all day every day kindergarten since 1989. I teach in a small Kansas town where the school district covers 400 square miles and the students come from diverse backgrounds. My elementary school has approximately 375 students in grades K-5 with three classes for each grade level. It is operated on a six day schedule to accommodate special classes for each classroom. Technology is one of the biggest and most exciting changes I have seen during my teaching career. In my classroom there are three Macintosh computers for student and teacher use. My students also have access to a lab equipped with 25 Macintosh computers. A knowledgeable paraprofessional staffs the lab. I teach my own lessons when my students are using this facility. Each lesson is 30 to 45 minutes long. Sometimes the lessons I teach take several sessions to master and sometimes they don't. It all depends on the group of children.

Tom Schersten Mathematics Consultant Residencies ~ Courses ~ Workshops 30 Randolph Avenue Randolph, VT 05060 For more information please contact Tom Schersten at Tom4Math@sover.net MATH MODELS FOR UNDERSTANDING Standards-based curriculum and instruction demand an emphasis on conceptual understandings, multiple representations and connections, mathematical modeling, and mathematical problem solving, according to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Use of manipulatives to model mathematical concepts and procedures provides the learnersboth students and teacherswith an opportunity for an experience which is visual, spatial, tactile, and kinesthetic. Through demonstration teaching and workshops with teachers: 1) I show classroom management strategies for the introduction of math manipulatives for every concept and skill encountered in the K - 9 math curriculum. 2) I lead a progression of activities that teach learners how to perform operations with the manipulatives, that prepare learners to verbalize the procedures they are doing with the manipulatives, and that show learners how to write the standard symbolic notations to represent the math concepts and skills being modeled. 3) I demonstrate how to wean the students away from use of the manipulatives once a strong link has been established between the concrete materials and the abstract notations.
