A much anticipated part of each morning in Kindergarten is sharing. This opportunity to tell classmates about an object or an experience is a great way for children practice speaking with a loud, clear voice while using details to describe what they are sharing. For the children not sharing, this time is a fantastic way to practice listening respectfully, sitting quietly, looking at the speaker, and thinking about what the speaker is saying. After each share, several children can ask questions or make a comment. We have worked hard on formulating thoughtful, relevant questions and making comments that are specific and focused on the actual share. Children love sharing and on days they forget to bring something most choose to do a telling share, my favorite kind, as they require a little more detailed description and slightly sharper listening.
