I absolutely love the directions that our kindergarten teacher @rachelblountfisher uses!! She sets ALL students up for success by using both words for the students who are ready, and pictures for those who are not. The directions are not only numbered, but they start with the green one, for go, at the top and the red one, for stop, at the bottom. AND it’s all posted right beneath the learning target!!! Sooooo great!!!!
