During the first week of school we use the "NO DAVID!" books by David Shannon to introduce our school, rules, and campus. We made several David printouts and taped them all around the campus. The concept was "We were worried that David would get into trouble at our school so we needed to find him and explain the best way to be a good student at our school" we also put paint hand prints that David had made with paint around the hallways to give us hints on what direction he was going. We taped "David" at different highlights of the campus: Library,Science Lab, Nurse, Office, Principal, Gym, 4th & 5th grade wing, 2nd & 3rd grade wing, etc. In conclusion: we get back to our classroom and discuss what our "FIND DAVID" adventure was like. Then we precede to talk about what rules we can make as a class to ensure that our class is fun and not so messy like David had done with his paint.
Where is David? Have you seen David Mrs. Martinez? We Need to find him before he makes a mess in our school. David does not like to follow the rules and we need to catch him and tell him about our kindergarten rules.
There is David's handprint that he made with paint! OH NO!! David is making a mess on our walls.
NO DAVID! He went passed through our library!
He is in office!!!
How about 4th Grade?
How about in the counselor's office?
The Gym?
OH NO! Our classroom door looks like it is open! Maybe he ran in there......

I am a currently an Instructional Facilitator in Harlingen Tx, and I love my JOB! I have found some awesome resources on various blogs and thought I would broaden my horizons and create one of my own. I love researching for upcoming lesson and themes and I love creating my own word & powerpoint documents to use in my classroom. My goal is to provide as many resources that I can for teachers to help their students be successful and provide differentiated instruction. I love collaborating and sharing new ideas! Sharing is Caring:)
