So apparently my kindergarten class is prone to accidents- in the first 3 weeks of school, we have had a nose bleed, a broken arm, sprained ankle, and today two boys ran into each other and my student went home with a goose egg above his eye! It was not a pretty sight to look at... actually, none of them have been particularly appealing. On the bright side, my kids are so sweet and have such great hearts. I am so excited to be working with them this year.
I am also glad that I still get to see my old class on a regular basis. I've always heard that a teacher's first class will always have a special place in their heart, but now I know it to be true. My first class was a challenging class, but they will always be special to me and loved by me. I can't wait to see how much they grow and change over this next year in 1st grade.
Today was Elegant Day where we celebrate learning the short 'e' sound, learning rules of etiquette, and trying (most for the first time) green eggs and ham. Teachers and students alike dress in their most elegant attire for the occasion. We eat on tables decorated with table cloths, fresh flowers, and candles. The boys pull the chairs out for the girls, the students sit with napkins in their laps, and fun is had by all. And as soon as it's all over, the fancy clothes come off and kindergarten-friendly dress come on... teachers, too!
