We had a wonderful first day of school together. I really enjoyed getting to know all the kids - they have such unique and engaging personalities. I can already tell that this is going to be an incredible bunch to learn and laugh with for the next 9 months!
Here are some highlights from today:
- We reviewed LOTS of procedures.
- We learned a really fun math game called Poison.
- We unpacked all our school supplies.
- We read the first chapter of a book called Dominic by William Steig. We discussed how this year gives each child a brand new start, and each child has choices ahead of them.
- We did a classroom scavenger hunt in order to get to know each other.
- We created a podcast.
- We ended the day with reading Miss Nelson is Missing, and having a great discussion about responsibility.
All in all, a very busy but very fun day together. I'm looking forward to many more days of learning!
