Levynn's first week of first grade was peachy, just in case you're wondering. She's still anticipating the best school year ever!
At the very least, this will be a more well-rounded school year. She has gym on Mondays, music on Tuesdays, library on Wednesdays, art on Thursdays, and library again on Fridays - all outside her classroom. At her previous school, a math and science magnet, there was neither art nor music.
In another welcome change, she has a nice school-provided planner in which we and her teacher can communicate daily without having to worry about notes in folders. It also has activities she can do from time to time, in addition to the homework we expect to start coming Monday.
She seems to be getting close with one classmate in particular, one of two other red-headed girls. And she already has a birthday party invitation from another girl. So hopefully she's adjusting well socially, too!
That is great that she loves it, and she should! she is well prepared and a happy little girl--thank God!
ReplyDeleteInteresting about the planner-- talking with parents around here, that seems to be a common thing these days--good idea!
