In Teach for America

According to Kate Bedingfield, teaching kindergartners is more potent than walking a puppy in a park for attracting women. Although I doubt teaching kindergarten and 10 puppies could help me, I thought I'd post these anyway.

Here I am teaching the short o phoneme and helping a kid arrange his manipulatives:

This was from my science lesson Friday when we played baseball. Everybody threw the ball at the target and everybody kept score of who hit what colors. We then made bar graphs of the results. They then made an independent bar graph of Mr. Hughes pitching fast and far away from the target. Analysis of the second graph showed that Mr. Hughes can't pitch well:

Here is the tallying of points:

That lesson was by far the best I've taught. The take away message was that incorporating baseball into the curriculum is essential.

you look cute teaching the kids ryan chase hughes- especially when you wear the very out of place baseball cap :)

You're setting a bad example. No hats inside!

Where's your Angels cap?

The baseball hat was part of the lesson. I sold it to them by putting on my glove & hat and then saying, "Who likes baseball?" Of course all of their hands shot up and I went into the lesson with them fully engaged.

My Angels hat is in storage.
