Here is my very first Show And Tell Apron 

draped over my chair 

at the front of my TK/K classroom in SoCal.

The apron's creator, Sandy, gave me this apron at the SDE Conference called "I Teach K!" several years ago. Sandy is the most talented, sweet, and generous teacher you will EVER meet! I love her so much and I wish I was little again so I could be in HER kindergarten class. 

I will always treasure my first Show And Tell apron!

My students could not wait to see which apron I would be wearing each day!

There is the regular style like the black one below, a tu-tu style, 

a BBQ style, 

and even a child-sized style!

How I Used My Apron:

I used it to teach phonemic awareness:

I used it to teach "counting up" 

(also called "counting on") 

in math:

I used it to teach CVC words 

and how to add a "magic e" 

to create a silent e word.

And I used it to teach sight words and 
high frequency words:

Here is my special funny tip:
If you are wearing your apron and you 
have the word "hello" in the pockets,
don't allow anything to cover the "o" as you 
carry things in your right hand or you will 
be walking around your school wearing 
an apron that spells out "hell"!  :o/

Anyway, I also used it 

to teach the sequence 

of a familiar story.

Here is Sandy, 

the owner, designer, and inventor of 

Show And Tell Aprons 

re-telling the story of The Three Bears:

(I invited Sandy to share her rap 

to Pre-K and K teachers at 

SDE's "I Teach K!" Conference 

in Las Vegas.

These days:

I love to wear my pink tutu Show and Tell Apron when I'm presenting across the USA and even in Canada! As soon as I put it on, teachers gasp and immediately start taking photos of me. 

Here is an image of my favorite 

Show And Tell Apron 

just waiting for me to put it on 

during one of my presentations for

Staff Development For Educators.

June 2nd conference!

So, true story... I was presenting in New England and I had a few minutes before my next presentation. I was wearing the special pink tutu apron Sandy made for me and I quickly ran into the elevator to catch the rest of the keynote that morning. Well, there was a big man in the elevator wearing a suit and looking very important and serious, but when he saw this pink blur run in his direction right into the elevator, he jumped backwards! I looked at him and said, "Don't judge, I'm presenting at a conference here." After a slight pause, he said, "Who are you presenting to?" 

I replied, "Kindergarten teachers," and as I walked out of the elevator I heard him say, "Oh, of course."  :)
