Classroom Management

For many children, kindergarten is their first experience with formal schooling.  (And doesn’t that make you appreciate pre-school teachers?!) Helping them learn how to share, take turns, line up and raise their hand can all be challenging on its own.  And, wait – you’re supposed to teach them how to read and write, too!

The California Kindergarten Association is here for you!  As a group of current and former kindergarten teachers ourselves, we’ve been there, and done that!  If trying to get kindergarten kids to work with you as a group is making you feel like you’re herding cats, we have strategies and tips to help.   Tried one of our ideas?  We’d love to hear how it worked!
