We are going to follow the name activities in the blue month
by month BB book for kinder. I think the name activities go
on for a couple of months. 15 to 20 minutes should be enough.
We are going to be using the Lucy Calkins writing units of
study. They will draw and write every day as outlined in the
units.
I also do the student books, but I also scramble a student's
name on the overhead and they have to guess whose name it is.
