First Day Success!

Look at this great group of kindergarteners!  

We had a terrific first day!

 We went on a school tour today and then spent a little time in the cafeteria 

learning some secret symbols for using the bathroom, getting water and clearing our spot.  We enjoyed eating our snack with Mrs. Bennett's Class.  

We also read a story titled, Manners in the Lunchroom.  

 Afterwards we all came together to talk about playground rules.  We read a story about using the equipment safely and then went outside for a little playground time before gym.  

Mila was super excited to see her older sister at recess! 

 Amelia was thrilled to see a first grade buddy too! 

 Another dynamic sibling duo!  

 William was happy kicking a ball around with these friends.

 Startime - a time to rest our bodies and brains.  The children get to sit/lay down in a quiet spot with a few books.  They can look at the books or just relax.  We did a pretty good job today with it but only practice for about 10 minutes.  

 Fire drill practice

Today we practiced a fire drill and what we would do if we ever had one.  Today's practice was just our class but rumor has it the fire department will be coming soon to practice as a whole school.  We did a fantastic job!  

 Here are some first day of school shots!!!
