4.  After I read Chrysanthemum I love to have the kids draw a portrait and make rainbow names.  

5.  This is by far my favorite anchor chart at the beginning of the school year.

It helps set the tone for the whole school year as we talk about how to get along with all our new friends. 

6.  On my CKPRIMARY teaching site I added some links to stories on youtube by Kevin Henkes.  They are great for snack time.  I will be updating this site as the year goes on.
