Today is the Day!!!

IT'S HERE!!!!!

Today is "Meet the Teacher" day at school.

Remember, though,

...most of my families already know me from Kindergarten.

I have 6 new students and families.

It will be so exciting to talk to them about 1st Grade expectations this afternoon.

They already know that I expect a lot of my kids.

They already know that I will push the kids to give their best effort in academics

as well as in citizenship.

They know I will send newsletters to let parents know what goes on in our classroom.

They already know that I will love their kids.

They know me and how much I love being at school.

THEY ALEADY KNOW!!!!!

I shouldn't be nervous.

...but I am.

First grade kids have a lot of curricular "stuff" that Kinder Kids do not. 

I am eager to dive into the curriculum and begin teaching and learning.

This year will be a learning process for me as well as the kids.

I'm excited for them to see the classroom changes.

I am excited.

I am nervous.

It will be terrific.

It just might be the "Bomb-Diggity!"

 I'm sure it will be delicious.

Prayers for a happy, healthy, encouraging new school year.

Today is the day.

Let's do this!!!
