A Great First Day

Today could not have gone any better. We had such a wonderful day! Not only was the weather prefect, but so was the company.
I had several things planned today for the boys. We had a scavenger hunt first this morning. The children received a sheet in which they had to find several things throughout our classroom. All of them seemed eager to find each item. The second activity of the day was a sheet in which the children had to answer questions about themselves. Here are some of the wonderful responses:
What is something that you are good at doing? "I'm good at riding my bike up the hill." Ryan
Things that I really like are..... "Going to NC State games and I-Carley." Bennett
I like to play........"Star Wars Legos with Daddy." Andrew
Each child will work on a book all month. This book will include all of our art projects and writing projects for the month of September. I'm looking forward to sharing those with you all.
We'll be reading books this month about feelings and our bodies/creation. The class calendar lists most of these books. We'll be learning a new finger play rhyme to go along with this study. I'll post it next week in case you'd like to recite it at home.
I am really excited about this year and I looking forward to having a class full of boys! See you next Wednesday!

Bennett had a WONDERFUL day! He said he had a really good teacher! :) He has been talking about it all day and has now put on the "Dash" costume again. Thanks for letting him borrow it this week. I heard him telling his daddy when he got home that he danced at school today. Too cute!

I'm so glad that he had fun. It couldn't have gone any smoother. The kids did dance in their costumes. I think that we are going to have a great year together, the boys and me:-)

No comments on the popcorn? Hehe. Thanks for being Andrew's teacher. And the comment about the Star Wars Legos made Christopher day :-)
