Give a room full of six year olds some popcorn, some legos, some cars, some stencils-paper-and colored pencils, some pointers and TIME to actually play, and you have Bliss, Pure Bliss.
That's the best part of being a First Grade Teacher. Seeing those little ones play. No tests, no rapid reading, no phonics workpages, no pressure to hurry up, just play, play play.
Wouldn't that be nice if all of us could do that? Just return to that safe place in a child's life when time and playing was all that mattered.
Hope. There is Hope in my heart when I see children at Play. Blissful Play.
