Shoe Tying With Pete the Cat



Shoe tying. . . not a school skill, I know.  BUUUUT Pete the Cat came today to encourage us to tie our own shoes!  

We read the book Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes and then talked about how Pete wants us to have safe feet.  He sent a poster to school and the kids get to sign it once they can show me they can tie their own shoes:


He also sent each of the kids a License to Tie and a certificate:



I don't teach shoe tying but I do encourage it! 

Now when a kinder asks me to tie their shoes I can say, "Ask one of Pete the Cat's friends who knows how!"

  9. Oh, I so love this. I swear my little buddies are sitting there untying their shoes just so I have to retie them, when I'm trying so hard to fill their little heads and hearts with knowledge. I have a couple that untie their laces to chew on them during group times! No matter that it's almost like licking the floor!

  21. My spouse and I have invested time at the school, while class was going on, and really like the way they handle the young ones.

  22. Dear Ms Rist: I noticed you're making the same mistake as many K-12 teachers do: It's ABCs, NOT ABC's. There no apostrophe in, say, 1990s. The 's' in the sentence "I'm glad you know your ABCs" is the mark of the plural (not possession). And since the sense you want to convey is that of a plural (NOT possession), the apostrophe in ABC's should be deleted.

  25. Hi,

    Do you have the PDF file for the poster? I looked on TPT, but didn't have any luck.

    Thanks!

    1. The file on this sight is a PDF file but I'll send it to your e-mail in case you can't get it to work. The filed is saved at school and I have a few days off so it might be closer to the middle of the week before you receive it.
