We made it through the first week of school!

Ms. Thabet and I would like to thank everyone for so graciously inviting us into your homes over the fast few weeks, and for attending our classroom parent meeting on Tuesday. It has been a pleasure getting to know everyone and seeing the children at school!

This week we had two half days where we worked on getting used to being at school without mom and dad, as well as familiarizing ourselves with the classroom routine. Along with our classroom we explored the playground on Wednesday and got to eat lunch at school on Thursday!

A few reminders for next week:

• Beginning Monday the children will be staying from 8:40-3:20pm. Please be on time to drop off and pick up, and wait for the school bells before walking down to the classroom.
• The children will be taking an hour nap, if you have not done so already you can send their nap blanket in their backpack Monday Morning.  Over the weekend continue to talk with them about how their teachers will be waking them up and you will pick them up at the end of the day. Sleeping at school can make some children nervous and talking about it ahead of time will help to ease any jitters! 🙂

Please enjoy these pictures from our classroom parent meeting and have a great weekend!
