Dear Families,
Today was a very exciting day! The first day of Grade One is always a big change. (expect to have some tired kids for the next month or two as they adjust to a full day of school) We started the day with some playdough and a little drawing and writing. Next we read a story and played a game. After that Mrs. Stuart showed us what morning routine looks like. We learned a body break called "Ants in Your Pants" We had one more job before snack and that was to make a picture to match our poem of the week.After snack we went outside to play on the playground for recess time. When we came in, we showed our teacher how we can write our numbers. Next it was time for lunch. That was new and our teachers took us to the gym to get us settled in. We eat first and play second. In the afternoon we stated off by learning some new songs. Then we drew out first day feelings and did more writing. After another story and game time we learned about our SMILE folders. These go home and come back to school everyday. And then it was time to go home after a very busy first day.
Important Reminders:
There are a few things in my SMILE folder tonight. Please keep the magnet on the fridge with my teacher's email addresses in case you need to contact them.
Love the Grade Ones
