Our kindergarten is going to start Building Blocks this
year. Are going to have inservices, etc. I am the only one
that has done this before at another school system. The
curriculum director is looking to me to be an "example" for
other teachers, Does anyone have any words of praise or
encouragement I could share with my collegues to ease them
into this change. For the past two years we have used
McGraw Hill and Breakthrough to Literacy. Some just dont
want to change..Any ideas?

Can you give me some examples of techniques for incorporating
phonics into your Building Blocks structure? I don't think I'm
teaching enough phonics or phonemic awareness. This is my first
year . . .
