I have gotten positive feedback from his teacher and look forward to keeping close communication throughout the school year. We are so lucky to have such wonderful educators. Of course I have signed up to volunteer to help out with pretty much everything! I did so much when the girls were in elementary school and got to see what an asset parental participation is to not only the student, but also to the teacher and other students. My first volunteer job will be picture day next week and I am really looking forward to it! It's a good way for me to get to know some of William's classmates.
When I pick William up each afternoon, I ask him what the best part of his day was. He always starts off with, "We went to the playground two times!". He hasn't learned all of his classmates' names quite yet, but knows his main teachers and some of the related arts teacher's names. He just loves P.E.. His coach is the same one that his sisters had throughout the elementary years. It has been wonderful seeing a lot of familiar faces at the same school I spent countless hours in. We feel like William is going to thrive in kindergarten and the rest of his elementary school career. Oh, by the way, I did NOT cry on the first day of school! I didn't even have any anxiety or fear. I guess I feel like he is right where he belongs. I look forward to sharing more about his kindergarten adventures. Thanks for reading!
YAY! Glad to hear that he's enjoying kindergarten! Here's to a great year.
ReplyDeleteAw, I'm so glad that he's enjoying school. Sounds like everything is working out.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!! Shelly, I think we did something right or wrong. LOL They are so happy and such a blessing to be so excited about school.
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear Williams is adjusting to school well. May the rest of his school year continue to be great.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I found myself getting nostalgic after you mentioned that his sisters attended the same elementary. Time is flying, Shelly! Lol. My oldest daughter will be 20 in November. That doesn't even sound right. Lol.
ReplyDeleteThe teacher allowed me and my son to tour her facility, and actually encouraged parents to aid in their child's transition by attending the school for a week with child.
