Kindergarten Diary

During Rest & Read today (Tuesday for my White Kindergarten Class), we read Kindergarten Diary by Antoinette Portis.  We got to follow Annalina as she keeps a diary during her first few weeks of Kindergarten.  Annalina is worried about what Kindergarten will be like.  She worries that her teacher will be scary and that the bigger kids will be mean.  Her diary reveals that none of her worries were true and Annalina ends up having a lot of fun in Kindergarten!

Check out this clip of the author, Antoinette Portis talking about her book.  Tonight, ask your child what they would write in their Kindergarten diary about their first day.  Encourage them to keep their own Kindergarten Diary!
