Love is in the air. Well, maybe not. However, the topic of love is bubbling on the minds of five and six year-olds in Kindergarten. As we race toward Valentine's Day and our "Friendship Party" the discussion about What is Love came to the surface today. I recorded the input from the class. You will note there is some understanding of how love goes with hugging and kissing, but I quickly had to issue a "We need other ideas in addition to hugging and kissing." to try and deflect all of the physical contact talk! Some are quite humorous. (You will notice we are not quite to the stage of defining a word without using that word in the definition. All in good time.)

ReplyDeleteI am sure glad I looked so pretty and Tim looked so handsome that we married, before we got as old as we are now, because we would probably never win the " love" contest at age 50!! : )
ReplyDeleteThese are so fun...what their little minds think.
