Ask children to create a collage of their favorite things. Allow kindergarteners to select the topic or assign a specific topic for the share day. For instance, ask children to think about their favorite foods. Provide old magazines and ask children to cut out pictures of their favorite foods. Encourage children to create collages of their favorite foods by pasting the pictures on poster board. Then ask children to share collages of their favorite things with the class and explain why they enjoy those items. Alternatively, ask kindergarteners to bring in items such as a favorite blanket or toy and to share them with the other children.
Create a family share day for kindergarteners. Ask children to bring in a parent or other family member and share facts about the family member. Children can also bring in a photo of a family member or create a photo album. Ask the kindergartener to describe his favorite memory of the family member. Another way to implement a family life share day is to ask children to create pictures that depict their favorite things to do with the family and encourage them to share the pictures with the group.
Assign a specific color or shape for the share day and ask children to bring in items of that color. For instance, ask kindergarteners to bring in any items that are red. Alternately, assign a shape such as a circle and ask children to bring in circular items. You can also ask children to bring in items that are both a particular color and shape. For example, assign children to bring in items that are both square and blue. Encourage children to share their items with the group and to explain why they chose them. You can also ask children to create a paper collage of items of a particular color or shape and then ask them to present the collages to the class.
Assign children to share information about their travels or things they did during their summer or holiday breaks. For example, help kindergarteners create flip books or photo albums with pictures from their travels. Ask children to share their books or photo albums with the class. Alternatively, ask children to bring in souvenirs from their vacation, such as a seashell or postcard. Encourage children to share the details of their vacation or the significance of the souvenirs.
