Hi! Has anyone ever taught a kindergarten/first grade
combo class? I've taught kindergarten for 6 years, but
never first grade, and then this year -- pow! I got a
combo class. It's been a challenge so far integrating the
two sets of standards and managing class time and prep
time. I kinda feel like I'm doing twice the work! Any
suggestions? Thank you so much!
nancy I'd appreciate any advise - I'll have a K-1 class next year.

Mary Anne I taught K/1 this year for the first time and it was a ride!! Only now when there is time for reflection can I see the positives but in the midst of it I was overwhelmed! Writing and reading workshops were the trickiest to develop but were also the most successful. I had to let go of my "teacher control" and trust the students more which was scary....See More
