I know those words in the title probably made you cringe just a little…. but we have to face reality because school starts NEXT MONTH!
This year I will begin the year in kindergarten…. which scares me a little bit. I have done this for nine years now, but the first day still always gives me butterflies….in a great way! I am eager to meet new faces, the smell of new supplies, teaching the rules and procedures…. but I have always done that with first graders. While some of you may be thinking…. oh first grade is just ONE grade different…. but Kindergarten is a different world {especially on the first day!}
I am very excited though, as I absolutely LOVE the younger grades! They are just starting their education experience… and lucky me because I get to be there from the beginning!
So…. I have been thinking a little a lot about the first days of school this year…. how many students will I have… what will my schedule look like…. how many boys? girls? etc…. Trust me, my mind NEVER shuts off!
While I have been doing quite a bit getting all of my classroom decor ready and organized… that means NOTHING without content and managing your classroom!
So…. I wanted something a little different this year for back-to-school…. and while I’m sure I will still use so many things from different sources and packets…. I will most definitely be doing some things from my newest back-to-school pack!
It’s time to get the “SCOOP” on the first day!
