Today was the first day of school.
On their desks, there were green work folders, a "How are you feeling?" paper in bright yellow and a shiny green apple to help ease this new transition. Our class was very quiet, but I have a feeling things will soon change. After lunch, I read "Never Spit On Your Shoes" for our daily read aloud time. This is my favorite part of the day, but I think it was the highlight of everyone's day. Hooray! They love to read.
Each student left with an Apple bag containing treats. Their homework assignment was to return the following day with three things to share with the class. Who are you and what do you like to do?
In my Apple bag, I had a pen because I love to write and a book because I love to read. Also, I had a cup representing my love for water. I love to drink, swim and keep clean with it! Don't you?
A high five, hug or a handshake were given to me as they said their "good-byes" out the door. A full, yet wonderfully exciting day it was.
Welcome to second grade in Room 401!
