The First Week!!!

Can I just say how wonderfully pleased I am with how this first week was!!! I am exhausted, sure, but totally excited by the energy and enthusiasm of these precious young minds. I am a REALLY fortunate teacher.

The metal "gang planks", loud hum of the air units, and heat, really are a non issue, because it is really all about what is happening in our room.

Smiles, good manners, bright minds, laughter and learning. It was a challenge getting organized with which folder and which journal are for what, but I never saw any frustration, only peers helping peers, and good questions being asked.

Math textbooks were handed out and science journals have been planned out....and the most exciting news is that we will be getting our Activeboards possibly by Monday!!! I also have heard a rumor that they are installing a sidewalk out to the playground.

I just had to sit the kids down before we left and thank them for such a wonderful first week. Obviously it is going to be an excellent year!!!
