Kindergarten: Tulip Day

The first day of Spring was the weekend before this lesson, so in celebration of the changing of seasons I taught my little ones their first origami lesson. In my classroom, I have a couple of kiddos that have additional needs and for them long directions can get confusing.
 To assist them with origami I created a 3D step-by-step chart showing them what comes next. Seeing, touching, and comparing helped them out immensely. They got to do most of it on their own without a teacher hovering over their shoulders. Even a few of the kids became confident enough to help out their table-neighbors when a step was forgotten. Yeah teamwork!


One of my student's schedule card.
 Images are attached with Velcro so events can be removed or/and replaced with others. Shout-out to our guidance-consular for putting this one together. It's been so helpful!
