    Back to school ideas
    By Lynn

    Clip to ScrapBook
       
    Here are a few ideas I've used that my students loved...
    1. Name Scrabble-we used giant graph paper and fit in each child's name a la Scrabble.
    2. We talked about how each one of us is special. To illustrate, I cut apples in half crossways and showed the children the star inside. Then we ate the apples of course!
    3. I read "Chrysanthemum" to the children, then passed around a paper girl with instructions to bend or crumple her in some way. We then tried to smooth her out. The children learned that we can say we're sorry for saying hurtful things but some of the hurt will still be there.

    Hope these help?
