When I went to volunteer at the elementary school today, it was a little different. Instead of working with just one kindergarten student, I got two. It was bit more difficult because being so young they didn't listen to well. My goal was to keep them on task and to follow the rules. It was a little difficult, but fun once I told them we were going to be playing Word BINGO if they behaved. That seemed to do the trick. Playing the game was fun, because even though they thought it was just a game they were actually learning new words. It was fun helping them read the new words and it made me smile to see the one boy that I have been working with all semester speak more English than he has before.
