Every teacher in the world loves the sounds of those words! What an incredible first day of school! Today is a day for many, many exclamation marks! Thank you to all the boys and girls for a most memorable day! I loved meeting you all and I can't wait to get to know you better!
I have a tendency to over-plan, so needless to say, we probably only got through about half of what I wanted to, but that's okay, we have something like 190 days ahead of us! There's loads of time (says the lady who always wonders how June comes so quickly 🤣).

- we talked about "the Big 12" see pics below
- we learned about "Smartboard mode"
- we talked about those wonderful table points!
- students know that it's essential they get their agendas signed
- the Play-Doh was distributed! They know it's a big deal, but they don't really know what we'll be doing with it!
- We talked all about the importance of manners, and even "built" a bulletin board on our carpet. I have no room on the walls for it right now, so this had to do!
- We ate Goldfish crackers (because we're "Oh-fish-ally" in grade three you know!)
- we started an awesome (and very old) novel called "There's a Boy in the Girls Washroom". It's a perfect way to start the school year because the main character, Bradley, gets EVERYONE talking!
Overall, it was a terrific day! I hope everyone gets their agenda signed tonight and comes to school with the three essentials: their manners, a sense of humor and a kind heart. Oh, and don't forget those indoors shoes! I hear the teacher likes a clean classroom! 😉
