As this is a project that I have started the year off with many times,
we decided to have the kids at Little AHOPE make namesigns for their
beds. These were just simple construction paper signs with lines in
the middle for their names and then room to decorate. We made examples
with Jen and Tiffany. The kids got really excited but we didn't
realize that even some of the older ones who attend school did not
know how to spell their names so that was a bit of a problem but the
kindergarten teacher came and helped out tremendously!! So she may
feel that we do not write our letters and numbers correctly(more on
that later) but seemed to like this activity.
While it was a bit chaotic and less structured than I usually insist
on back home, the kids had a great time. Then I helped them hang up
their signs with duck tape and took their pictures. They were very
proud of themselves, especially some of the boys, which was sort of
surprising. You will all love seeing the pictures, they are
adorable!!!
