Names
8/5/08
I try my hardest to learn all my students names in the first few days of school. This is usually pretty easy for me because I get to know the students as Kindergartners and its usually just a matter of remembering who is who. It gets interesting when students come to Riverside who attended other schools for Kindergarten.
I told the students to cover up their nametags and I went through the room telling them their names just to make sure I had them all down. I came to one young man and I hesitated for just a moment. I said "Oh Your name is Jonathan!" very proud of myself for remembering. He replied, "Yeah, I allready know that."
Priceless....
