Today was the first day of First Grade for Henry!
(yes, schools started very late this year)
Elliot was NOT interested in having his picture taken to mark the occassion.
Henry woke up excited to go and was very happy all during the walk to school. He was happy to meet his new teacher - Mrs. Harvey - and see his friends. But when it came time for Mike and I to leave he became a little teary.
When I picked him up, they had a chart of "Our First Day Feelings" outside the door. Henry was one of two who placed himself in the "sad/upset" category. Poor guy.
BUT, he said he had a good day and was in a great mood at pick up. They are starting off with a unit on insects and I learned many insect facts on the walk home. His school does a "looping" system where Henry will have the same teacher and class for first and second grade, which I think will be really good for him.
Congratulations to our big first grader!!!!
