Rolling Stones

My first week of teaching I learned a few things. First, of course my Kindergarten students are really cute and funny. However, they are also typical kids. They love to be silly, loud, talk a lot, whine, and complain. After a few day of too much whining and complaining I taught them a lesson from the Rolling Stones. I started singing the chorus of "You can't always get what you want"! They caught onto the words and the meaning very quickly! So it was really fun and cute for the last few weeks, anytime a student would whine or complain everyone would join in and sing!! Then today, I realized just how clever my little students were. I told them to all get out their writing books and start their story. They responded by singing to me "You Can't Always get what you want"!! It was so hard to keep in the laughter! However, the teacher in me decided to teach them the "other" chorus which is "Ms. Lindsey ALWAYS gets what she wants"!!
