I have to admit that the talk show was...Hi Aly!!! <br /><br />I have to admit that the talk show wasn't my idea, but my supervising teacher's -- the way it works is like this: <br /><br />Ask for a volunteer to be the "host" (explain that the host will ask questions and interview guests and audience members throughout the show) --- you can probably get a feel for who will really get into the character --- it's more fun if the "Host" really has fun with it.<br /><br />Ask the host to choose a few random students to be "guests" (or you can choose them yourself -- you can even be a guest!), explaining that, just like in a real talk show, they will be interviewed by the host (who has to come up with the questions on his/her own) -- some students will be too shy to do this and that's okay -- they can be members of the audience. <br /><br />Whoever isn't a guest is a member of the audience -- the job of the audience is, just like in a real talk show, to ask questions of the guests and host. <br /><br />Arrange the desks so that there is one in front for the host, and 4-5 off to the side for his/her guests. The rest of the desks were put together in the back of the room for the audience. <br /><br />Then, it's up to the host to start the show -- he invites his guests to the stage and just has fun with asking questions. The point is just to get to know your students and get them to feel comfortable with each other. The more the students get into it (the more YOU get into it), the more fun it will be! <br /><br />Hope this helps -- it really is a fun activity.<br /><br />EmilyEmilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02824387274029192052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859956420607943554.post-915613973296516472013-07-18T00:24:48.175-04:002013-07-18T00:24:48.175-04:00Carolyn -- we're soul sisters!!!

I loved this. :) So many things you said were so me! :) I took piano lessons for YEARS and tried so hard- and nothing. :( I took gymnastics for a week after my mom paid for the year- until the coach "maked" me do a split by pushing me down. :( Done. I LOVE teaching poetry with my kids, and love Jesus, naps, and country music! So there you go. I loved reading all your stories- and your haircut is adorable. :) <br />Carolyn<br /><a href="http://www.ckisloski.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Kindergarten: Holding Hands and Sticking Together</a>Carolyn Kisloskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02297646560810079163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859956420607943554.post-10387200126460887802013-07-12T23:40:17.258-04:002013-07-12T23:40:17.258-04:00You're so welcome!
