Today was our first day and it was fabulous! I loved meeting each and everyone of the 20 students in my class! They all gave me a thumbs up at the end of the day and said they will be back tomorrow. They must have enjoyed the day as well.
I didn't take any pictures yet. It was a very busy day and I am waiting to check the permission slips. We, of course, had to spend some time talking about expectations for things like walking in the hallways, using the restrooms, going to lunch, going to recess, coming in from recess, getting the teacher's attention in the classroom, going to the bus, coming off the bus in the morning, etc. Poor kids! I have to say, tho, these kids handled it great! They were awesome listeners and did everything I asked them to do.
We managed to sneak a few academic things in (ok, and some fun things, too!) We started working in our cursive handwriting books, took a math timing, did an "I Can't Project" and "Crumple Girl". The students also filled out their planners for the first time. Please be sure to check it EVERY day and initial it at the bottom so I know you saw it. Thanks!
I'm sure your child is tired tonight. I know I am! I am looking forward to a great year!
